I have had my X-carry milled for RMR, and my Legion is currently in line to be milled for the SRO. I have chosen to get the slide milled because the plate site the optic higher then I like, im hoping to have it back in 2 weeks.

My X5 has shot BBI exclusively since I bought it last May, its got about 12k-14k rounds down the barrel and ive never had an issue. here am using the factory Dillon crimp die, but I dnt see that making a difference.

You can use 1911 springs for replacements or check sig's web site, I do not know if they have been put on the site yet, but like stated 1911 springs will work.

I struggled to replace the mag release on my X-carry an while back, I found out that putting the grip module in a bench vise to squeeze the mag release will free up that 2nd hand to work with the paper clip and a small flat head, this worked best imo. The crazy thing is that I have never had an issue with the mag release on my X5, go figure...

Welcome! What part of GA are you from? FYI, there are tons of club matches around the ATL & surrounding areas.

The chamber in my pcc is pretty shallow, I was loading my CO ammo at 1.140 and they would not chamber in my pcc. I changed over to 124’s for CO and run the same ammo in my pcc.

Load them a touch shorter and that problem should go away, also make sure you have cleaned up the casting imperfections in the bottom of the Glock mags. I didn't do this when I put on my MBX extensions and the follower was hanging up as it passed the mating area between the mag & the extension. I'm using PD 124 JHP's as well, but I'm loading them to 1.100.

Cherokee Gun range, River Bend Gun Club, South River gun club, all these ranges host Monthly USPSA matches. There are also some indoor matches during the week at a few ranges in those areas you mentioned. If you are ok with a 2-2.5hr drive you can also shoot at Strong Point Gun range and CMP Talladega, all these ranges host clubs that put on great matches every month, weather permitting of course. This time of year we will get Severe pop up thunder storms, unfortunately this gets in the way of our shooting in the Atl & surrounding Areas. FYI, Practiscore is the best way to find out Times, dates, addresses, and of course register for all these matches. I don't know about any IDPA matches except for a couple Indoor ranges, which can be found on Practiscore as well.

I personally haven't had a dot die (knocks on wood), but some of my buddies have, they were allowed to go to the warm up/empty bay with the RM to confirm zero.

RMR window is very small and not "competition" use friendly. I'd go with the X5 for the bull barrel, most of the other components are identical minus the preference of the 90* flat trigger or the curved. If you prefer the Standard Full-size Grip module you can order one for $40 from Sig.

I think this is very possible. In my talks with Tiffany in MS, she explained to me that because the guns are all built with almost the exact tolerances, very little if any fitting is required. I was amazed, but also a bit skeptical. I was not educated enough to know how that could be done so I called a buddy of mine that is a CNC 3axis machinist in the airline industry. He said this is VERY possible when the company has the right equipment/tooling and has control over every aspect of the manufacturing process. He said that most times when there are issue's with tolerances not matching up, its due to the manufacture out sourcing multiple components of the overall component, the Machines are so advanced now days the tolerances can be made to what ever the company desires when they have control over the entire manufacturing process. I'm planning on ordering one the beginning of next yr, I will definitely be looking to swap a 9 major barrel for a 38SC lol

It might be grossly over priced to you, but it doesn't stop hundreds of shooter's from buying one even 2 each yr. I do not own a Honcho so I have no skin in the game. Here's my experience with on first hand. I got to put some rounds through one at 9 days of Nationals in a warm up bay with the 38SC open setup. IMO, the guns is heavy (compared to its competition, but I like it), but is rock solid, like Chris & Steven have said the gun shoots crazy soft! The gun yet heavy swings easy from target to target, I was able to get double taps on an A zone plate that was set at 20-25yrd in the bay, and the trigger was very nice (felt like 2-1.5lbs) with a positive rest. Oh yeah, at this point I was not an open shooter so the Blast to the face was new. A friend of mine ordered one when they first released, the gun has been very reliable and the only issue was he broke a mag release 2 weeks ago, PT sent him 2 new ones a few days later. I have seen him shoot a 6" plate at 40yrds with ease. this gun shoots a local if not 2 every weekend and has shot several majors with me, the gun has run like a sewing machine. I am fairly new to USPSA (18months) so I was not familiar with the link-less system. This year at the Mississippi Classic I was able to talk with the "Honcho" and Tiffany about the system, after talking to them both for more then an Hr I was convinced that its a great product, i had to have one. They gave me their undivided attention and never once tried to "sell me on the gun" they just answered my question's.

Just switch to PD 124 JHP's from BBI coated 147's, here's the load data for my X5. Precision Delta 124g JHP VV N320 4.0g CCI small RIFLE primer OAL- 1.100 This made a 130PF on sunday

I shoot CO with a P320 X5 w/Gray Guns competition kit, I EDC with a P320 X-Carry with RMR and the same trigger kit. I had the slide re-milled for the RMR so it doesn't sit up real high and presents just about the same as my X5.

I had my dealer order me one already, they are a preferred Sig dealer so they will get between 8-12 units, while most other dealers will only get 1-3 initially. These are the owner's words not mine.

DEAL lol

Were you looking at the hellcat's or another model? Boombah is a company that caters to softball & baseball predominately, my 7yr old draught plays softball and ive found that most of the cleats/turf shoes now day are a very stiff plastic. Now as far as the Hellcat's, they are not stiff at all, they required no "break-in" time and the only portion of the shoe I might consider stiff would be the sides of the heel, but that's going to be the case for almost every trail runner/turf shoe on the market. I can also tell you that the tread holds up 100x better on the Boombah's compared to the Salomon's. I'm terrified to know what the ladies in Oklahoma look like then. LMAO

I wore Salomon's Speedcross 4's for the first 18 months of shooting USPSA, I bought the wide version about 4 months after buying my first pair. The main issue I ran into with the Salomon's was that the Toe box was too small for my feet and would scrunch up my toes (even with the wide version). When I was initially shopping for Salomon's I made it a point to try and find them locally and try them on, I had to go up 1 whole size because of them not being wide feet friendly. 5 months ago I made the switch to Boombah's Hellcat trail runner's, the tread pattern is very similar to Salomon's but they are wider in the toe box. They are 100x more comfortable and they are 1/2 the cost (Amazon) of Salomon's. This will be the only shoe I wear for shooting unless I find something with better comfort, performance, and looks. I didn't even consider Inov8's because they are ugliest shoe I've ever seen, right behind Chuck Taylor's. Yes I'm that shallow lol.

12k rounds on my X5 with Romeo 1, all 12k have hit the optic housing. knock on wood the dot is still going strong

Never been a fan of the grip tape because it wouldn’t last long, but Bill makes a great point with the glue on the edges.

I only have the Grip module & the Tungsten guide rod, but the gun is 100x better in feel, recoil pulse, and it even shoots flatter. The gun currently weighs 40oz with the optic. IMHO it is money well spent.

Thanks zzt, I live in GA and shoot all over the south east, the heat & humidity is ridicules. I'm definitely gonna try out the MP.

Is it reverse temperature sensitive? also what's the consistency of the powder? flake, grain, etc?

My 650 is a Frankenstein when it comes to dies. Stations 1- LEE "U" die 2- Dillon powder drop W/Mr. Bullet feeder funnel 3- Mr. Bullet feeder drop 4- LEE Bullet seating Die 5- Dillon Crimp Die

I'm going to grab a pound of 3N38 and maybe one more and see where that takes me. I am definitely liking the idea of lower powder drops to help prevent spillage, that removes the possibility of inconsistent chrono results. is the Tru Blue reverse temperature sensitive?
