Wow, that is a fast barrel. I need 9.3 grains of HS-6 to get a 174PF with a MG 115jhp from my 5 inch KKM.

No, that is with a 95 grain JHP

Where are they on sale?

I bought my IKam's from Speed Shooter Specialties from the forum dealer section on here. So far they have been great. I can not wait for the 3 gun match this month to try them again.

It is amazing what these things catch. I had to really edit the footage I had before I could upload to youtube. I'll put more up later, but it really is cool to see things again from behind the gun.

First the video from yesterday's match: I bought these glasses from HEREthe quality is very good for the price and there are not any wires to have hanging off of you and nothing to clip to your hat. Very cool.

Damn, got me

They may be spring loaded, but I still had this problem until I filed an angle on the pin as well.

Powder Valley has Fed small rifle match back in stock for $31 per K

I have the slide ride version and really like the larger view of the sight compared to the STS. I would use which ever type will be on your open gun.

I guess I really need to take a calm my ass down pill in the future then. When I drive 1.5 hours + one way to get to a level I USPSA match I expect it to follow the rule book and have legal stages. When I decide to go to a non USPSA match I make that decision knowing the rules could be spotty at best. I was at a level I match once that required me to have 5 mags to finish the stage, I just happened to be shooting limited minor and only had 3 with me. I should never be required to need that many mags shooting limited and be told if I don't like it then don't shoot it. I run a local match and spend every night the week leading up to the match designing stages that are legal, so it really gets my blood presure up when another MD will not take the steps to fix the problem. Seeing everybody's comments makes me think I should just be quiet and let it go. Being the rule follower I am, that is going to take some work so bear with me(that's for the locals that might read this).

I have a R&R S-12 and the ONLY jams I have had were caused by 1 mag. It will not feed the third round from that mag ever. When I remember to leave that mag at home it runs and runs and runs. I have gotten to where I don't like iron sights or loading a shotgun 1 shell at a time. Oh yeah, outlaw matches rule!!!! Nothing like having a 20 round mag and not being able to use it.

Cool, a couple of those were on my short list to try. Manny Bragg has a new comp that I was able to shoot a week or so ago that I really liked. I put an aluminum GR in that gun, but it is still an anchor. It is flat, but heavy.

So, if you were wanting to test several comps on a new gun, what would your top 5 choices be to test? I'd like to test 3 or 4 out on a new build I am doing, but I don't want to try some that are marginal at best. I like the EGW 9 major comp, but it is wicked nose heavy. I was looking at a buddies Brazo's SX Saturday and love the way it feels. So I guess I am looking for some of the lighter ideas out there.

Love my DROID too. I am running 2.1 and over clocked etc and I can get a good 18 hour day from a charge. Of course I am really working it a lot during the day. If I tone it down I can get 2 days from it.

1st Sat 2hr 45 min one way 2nd Sat 45 min 2nd Sun 2hr 45 min 3rd Sat 1hr 30 min 4th Sat 50 min (this is the match I run) I seem to live in no mans land for matches.

LOL, I always go back a double check this load since it does seem kind of high. I have a 5 inch storm lake and a 5 inch KKM barrel with no holes and get a nice 175 power factor. I can run 1500 plus rounds with out any problems with dirt. I only clean it because I feel like I have to every 3-4 months.

Dude you need to be more specific about anything going on. Depending on where you are, there are matches every Sat/Sun every month in the area. If you mean major matches, then no probably not. Just off the top of my head: Space Coast USPSA first Sat Steel Second SUN Orlando (central Florida) USPSA 4th sat Port Malabar USPSA 2nd Sat 3 gun third Sat Steel 3rd Sun IDPA 4th SUN There are a ton of other things to. Just type in FL in the USPSA club finder and go to their web sites and view the event calendars.

I agree with the others. It is the softest powder I have used. I use 9.3 grains with a MG 115jhp loaded out to 1.180 OAL. This is in a 5 inch gun with no holes. At this PF it really is not that dirty.

Thanks for all the replies. This one might hit right where I should look. I might be making it personal, but when the shooter makes the two people that make the matches happen want to hang out a closed sign and drive to another match something just might need to be done. I guess it never helps when BOTH parties might need some anger management sessions

From shooting your monthly level 1 match for non safety reasons? I'll leave it at that.

You never know how your caspian will come out from the factory. I ordered a frame during the last sale and had a 9mm slide laying around. I went last night to get an idea of how much time I was going to spend fitting the slide to the frame and they are already an almost perfect fit. All I have to do is lap it in now.

Thanks for the reply CY I think I'll chamber check each piece until whatever sizer I get arrives. I think sending the brass that I have away to have it done is pretty cost prohibitive. If shipping your brass is cost prohibitive, Kenny also sells roll sized 9mm, 40 s&w and sometimes other cal. already roll sized for less than most online places have un roll sized brass.

Yep, I just started to use lube and it is night and day how much easier/smoother things run.

I think this is interesting, because my tennis elbow acts up more when I shoot the limited gun and is not nearly as bad when I shoot open.
