Sigarmsp226

I have purchased 4k rounds from X-Treme in the past 45 days with plans to pick up another 4-5k this weekend if they put the 10% discount on again.....My two orders shipped within 24hrs of X-Treme receiving my orders and their communication was great.... The quality of the 3k that I have loaded and of those 3k, the almost 2k I have shot, have reflected the high quality product that X-Treme has always provided me.....I only order the 124gr HPCB bullet and use this round in all of my 9mm pistols and AR’s.....Mark

Dawson .205 for me also......Allowed me to reset my rear sight up 6 or 7 clicks.. Before replacing the my X5 was shooting 5” low. Now it is hitting right where it is suppose to hit....Best $35.00 I ever spent.....Mark

I was told by a SIG CS Manager that I have worked with at SIG for over 5 years that the small X5 grip module would be the first run and right now they anticipate the tooling to be complete and assembled grip modules to be shipping in late Feb or early March 2019....I guess time will tell if this info is accurate....I asked if he felt confident this information was accurate and he said he would give this release timeline a 75% chance of being accurate......Mark

I was the shooter in this senario.... I did not realize due to the distance that I was actually hitting all shots low and as a result the three to the body did fall in the 0 down area and the two to the head were just under the head area....I thought the target should have been scored 10 down but to no suprise I ended up 28 down on this one target..... Needless to say I have decided to skip the next match because this particular S.O. Is running the match...I will not shoot any future matches with this S.O. Running the match.... Thanks to everyone who provided feedback, comments, and support.....Mark

Sarge - Sir you are right. My appology. I will ask if a mod can move this or should I just delete my original post?

Question for those here who know more than me and I think the SO that scored this target. Stage is Limited Scoring... Target reflects 5 bullet holes with three in the body 0 down area and two in the one down area between the body and head BUT the two shots above the body down 0 area did NOT strike the head “zone”.... SO, who is fairly new, and is “never wrong” (if you ask him) scored this target in the following manner.... Two PE’s for having no bullet strikes in the head area PLUS 10 down for “missing” the head area completely twice PLUS He removed the two best hits from the 0 down body area thus causing these two to cause another 10 down.....PLUS 2 down for the two shots that missed the 0 down ring in the main body are I went 28 down on this one target based on his scoring.... I did not have a rule book with me and had no internet service so I was unable to respectfully argue the final call but I did ask to speak to him after the non-sactioned match to ask that he review this call when he got home....Waiting for his feedback, if I get any.... Experienced S.O’s - How do you score this target....Thanks. Mark

Thanks Sir. Was not sure if the 5.3” barrel would cause it to not qualify for the SSP division. Thanks again...Mark

Thinking about picking up a Glock model 34 and wanted to ask what division does this pistol fall under related to IDPA divisions?

C-More 6 or 8 MOA ARW - Aluminum Rail System....

That is why they make Kia Rio’s and a Audi A8’s.....Everyone gets to decide what they want and/or what they can afford....Truth told both will get you from point A to point B.... It is just based on what each person wants.... Why buy a Colt AR-15 when you can buy another less expensive brand that is 1/3 the price....For me the intial cost was never an issue. I bought a JP to shoot IDPA and USPSA steel challenge because of its reliability.

Sorry for my delay in providing photos of the AWT Magwell Funnel on my GMR-15. Also the writing you see on the inside comes off. I did this with a sharpie not the company....Mark

GIO - I went with the AWT aluminum magwell in black and I am happy with it so far. Installed in 2 min and has a set screw on it to help keep it secure.....Mark https://www.shootersconnectionstore.com/AWT-PCC-GMR-15-Magwells-P5092.aspx Heat dissipator - Cannot say if it makes a huge different but Ben at JP suggested I get it for only $75 if I ever plan on shooting USPSA run and gun courses to help with the heat espically with matches in the South where I live where it can be 100F on the range when shooting....I am an old man (59) so I went with an entire black on black on black GMR rifle....Mark

GIO - Everyone has their opinion so I will share mine with you....I recently ordered a GMR-15 and I went with the basic stock, non side charging handle unit. The only options I added was the barrel heat dissipator, and the stainless 14.5” barrel with the pinned three port comp...I swear it looks like the comp is part of the barrel.... I went with this set up after talking to several professional shooters that use this rifle for shooting steel. Now if your plans are to shoot IDPA this set up shoud also be good since most stages will never require a reload but if you are going to shoot USPSA I am sure there are others here who can advise what other options you should consider. My rifle was just over $1800 delivered and I plan on using the money I did not spend on the extras to stock up on the needed reloading supplies as funding allows....I did add two items to my GMR. A aluminum mag well funnel ($95.) and most importantly a C-More ARW Aluminum 8MOA red dot($325). If you have never looked through a C-More you might want to give it consideration......Mark

ZZW - No Sir. Took less than 2 minutes. I did take a drop of gun oil and put on a small cloth rag and lightly wiped down the area that the two parts were going to mating so that it did not hang up requiring me to have to “tap” it on. It slid on with force from my palm and then I put one drop of blue loctite on the set screw before securing....I will get a few pictures this weekend and post here.....Mark

+1 on the CMC 9mm trigger. I love mine and it has run flawlessly....Mark

Agree. I carry both to my IDPA matches I shoot in. If the stage reflects 12 or more shots to complete I load a 33 rd with 20 rounds. I ussually load my mags with 6-8 extra rounds. If it is a short stage with 11rounds or less I load a 17 rd mag. I also carry two extra 17 round mags on my belt in the event I have a 33rd malfunction... Glock has just recently introduced a 24rd mag but their price is higher than a OEM Glock 33rd mag.... Brownells currently has the OEM 33rd mag on sale for $28.99. Spend $100 and get 10% off today and free shipping....

JAFO - Going to slug my P320 X5 barrel and my M&P Core today or tomottow to see what they measure...Might need some guidance on the best bullet based on my findings...More to come...Mark

No Sir - Currently a PSA AR9 with a 16” barrel but plan on converting over to my JP GMR-15 that just arrived a couple of week ago....I have not yet put a round through the JP yet as I want to learn on my PSA before changing over to the JP... I use this load currently because it is my IDPA pistol load. Since I just recently (about 90 days ago) got into PCC I decided to use my pistol load for my PCC shooting for now espically since I have several thousand rounds already loaded of this recipe... As I learn more about PCC shooting and shoot more, my plan will be to create a lighter load for my PCC rifles... I welcome any guidance, comments, suggestions because my plan is to create a dedicated PCC load this winter as time allows.....Mark

Thanks Garrett - Appreciate the response and feedback....Mark

Garrett - Any excessive smoke issues or unburned power with the 231? I ask because I picked up two 8lb unopened jugs from a sportings good store that was going out of business for a heck of a price ( $150.00 for both ) and have been loading Titegroup for a long time and Plan on working up some loads for my PCC and pistols I shoot in local IDPA matches....Mark

Patrick - Thanks for posting this link. About to order one. Mark

I shot in this class twice with a SIG P320RX, and made several range trips before my first match, only to realize that the Romeo1 red dot is to small for these 59 year old eyes....I was chasing that dot all day....Purchased a Burris FF3 6 MOA and will give it a try again in the near future..... Right now I have shifted my focus to PCC and with a C-More 8MOA I find that big red dot easily.....But remember - I am old....Mark

S&W686 - A Local shooter that I shoot with twice a month won his division in PPC and finished 2nd overall in PCC (DH)..... He could not quit talking about how great everyone at this shoot was towards the shooters and that the courses were challenging and fun. He said it was the best organized shoots he has shot at and plans on going back next year and dragging me along.... Great job by everyone involved in the eyes of this shooter and he is a good guy.....Mark

X-Treme 124gr Heavy Plated FMJ CCI primers 3.5gr Titegroup Mixed Brass 1.11 OAL At 10 feet average (20 shots) - 1152 FPS.

Agree 100% Sir....Mark
