I've been wanting to pick up a hundo, untill then I check each round with the barrel. Practice, and level ones I don't use special components. Level 2s I always use new brass and federal primers.
You are your worst critic. I watch all my match videos and see what I messed up consistently on. Ie mag changes. So I'll spend more time working on my mag changes over and over. Keep working not until you get it right but until you can't get it wrong.
My 2011 currently has an ambi safety. I've been thinking about switching it to a left side only. As I'm right handed but after reading this thread I'll be sticking with the ambi.
Trying to finalize a load for my 38sc. 5in hybrid 3 port scheumann barrel. 125 coated bullets. I'm getting a lot of smoke and fire out of the comp (3 top ports 2 ports on both sides) with a decent amount of recoil as well not shooting as flat as I'd like it to. So far I've used auto comp. 7.4 grains to 8.0 grains. And aa7. 10.4 grains to 10.8 in increments of .2 those are the loads that will meet a 165-180 pf. Do I need a faster or slower burning powder to get less fire and flatter shooting? 3n38 is not available local.
