Truckin_Thumper

I have been loading major using AutoComp. I am now shooting carry optics and running minor and using AC as I had a bunch of it. Now its almost out and was looking to see what powder could replace this. If I can use less powder on my loads, thats perfect, as long as it feels the same.

I am running the Nickle mags, Hennings +4/5 base pads and grams followers/springs. Really liking the 23 round mags They fit in the gauge with a bit of room too.

Warm and Safe ---MC heated gear that I have used for years. I have used this gear for years. My 8 yr old liner is still going strong and my gloves wore out, but they still keep me warm. Battery pack and troller (reostat) will be needed. ETA: They now have a battery pack troller combo that looks pretty daggon cool. I may have to order one of them, or two.

Jason at Hennings states there are no issues! Off to spend mo money

I sent Hennings an email to find out more. I will post what they return.

Does anyone know if the TTI or Hennings work with these mags? I know the CZC do not as the lips are thinker than the black mags. Hate to order these and they work fit

I had to sand the tang corners a wee bit. Wont actually work as a slide lock, but no care

It happens, and I may be the ONE in 1000......but thats all it takes sometimes

I am glad y'all had a good encounter. I sent an email asking to take my money for things I am not sure what I needed. Nada....nothing....zip. I will find stuff elsewhere if they cant answer an email in less than 5 months.

Looking forward to this. Room booked, ammoes loaded, three day work week. I will be shooting on Friday, and giving moral support to fellow shooters from Texas on Sat. P.S. If you see "Thumper" on the back of a jersey , say hello

Right, too much of a PITA to take it off for cleaning. Plus, I am used to it on the right side now. I guess I will just to the shooters Connection and have it coated

Looking for a better than OEM Slide racker....anything besides Shooters Connection?

Bruce over at Primary is good folk.....I have never heard nor experienced anything bad about or from him.

I guess i'll throw my worthless opinion in here... I like a heavy slow round for CO and Production. 147gr subsonic 128 ish power factor. I have loaded Autocomp with 3.8gr, 147gr Extreme bullet. Feels very sift but makes PF.

I bought a couple of 1000 before I realized I could pay off an XL650 in about 8 months. Its good stuff. My Czechmate did not like the OAL, so I had to shorten them. With a OAL of 1.125 I was getting 1470 avg. FPS. Whats that? 180 PF Now I buy the bullets from them. Great company and great customer service!

well, I finally figured out what the issue is. Its me, I think....LOL If I slam the mags home, it causes a nose dive. If I firmly drive a mag in, no issue. So I have to retrain myself to not slam the sumbitch in. Anyone else have this issue?

its like $30, right? PM me your address or Zelle, I will cover it, just send me the part. if it does not fit I guess i put my SP-01 in the Shadow 2 parts bag...... damn.

now I may be wrong, but I am pretty sure the slide stop for the 75 series works all the way around. The safety is another story.

now you have your answer.

If you have the Shadow 2 wide safety can you see if it will work it the Stock II?

OK, my Sp-01 and S2 use the same stop, that same stop works in the Stock II Extreme. Now, what are you up to?

I will see if I can find the CZ one, and see if it will work in my extreme II....

For shits and giggles, will this handle major power factor? I have not had time to swap springs, or blue loctite the sight screws. Been running ammo on my new 650. I did run a 150 rounds in the press. 147gr Extreme bullets, 3.8 gr of autocomp, 1.12 OAL. I need to run some major for my Czechmate, so that is why I am using autocomp, I have 8lbs of it. any feedback on this? Oh, and not in a huge rush as I have a month or so before a major match. I should have it make weight before that. OH, who is a decent grip mfg? None of my CZ ones have stuff for Tanfo

Thanks, but I am going to use the EXT one, if I can find it for the Extreme. Got spoiled with my Shadow 2 and Czechmate. " I did find that the 13# hammer is a bit too lite. I am running CCI primers, and I have a bunch of S&B ammo. Was not a good day, but when it ran, holy smokes what a joy to shoot. 6 plate rack in about 4 seconds, so I think I have it almost prefect. It had two other grip nut induced issues. Ammo too long (just starting reloading too), and purple loktite is not really that great for slide ride dot's screws. But, I think I like this pistol more than the Shadow 2, and I bleed Czech.....

OH, I will more than likely order some goodies from Patriot, guide rod being the main item. It should get me at the 45oz mark. I would like to know how much the single sided ext. safety weighs. If it is .25 less than stock, I would fell like I am winning!
