  1. I bought a Truglo, it was 25$ and I really like it. I put it on the gun last weekend and it was a good move. I even stood a sheet of OSB up and used it for a wall, about 8 yards from the target. It was a true hard lean and man was that sweet! No more switching shoulders. The Truglo is well made and clamps on nice and tight. Amazon.
  2. When we used to load 4.5-5.0gr for 200gr .45acp in the days when you shot a single stack in Limited division, the move was very slow and steady. When I checked that load I was just at 125pf, but it was close. As a rule( mine) flaky shotgun powders aren't the first choice in very small quantities. You are also .040 longer than my OAL, makes sense it is a bit slower. I am also using a plated bullet, Xtreme. Titegroup always has been snappy, but it is consistent and meters pretty well. Also accurate as you stated. If you have any Power Pistol, give 4.2/4.3gr a try, same bullet.
  3. That is the barrel I have, which I like very much, especially the weight ! If you're interested in carving out your own unnecessary feed ramp, see my feed ramp thread !
  4. You can't go wrong with any of the VV powders, a bit pricey but great! 115gr.........3.0 Clays 3.5 Universal 4.2 Power Pistol All run around 1100fps out of MY gun, I would chrono for yours. If it was for a major match, I would up all just a touch.
  5. I got a chance to shoot today and it was great ! Probably 50 or 60 rounds without a problem ! Everything fed, fired and ejected as it was supposed to. Time will tell but for now I think it was a good move.
  6. I planned on it . Just looking for real world feedback. Also good to know. I guess if the wave spring gets flattened out I will get a length of delrin rod and make my own. Used to have tons of it in the shop I used to work at, not anymore. Amazon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
  7. I get it, lots of rounds loaded, gotta use em" up ! Once you start loading for the rifle , go by your chronograph, not load data. I found the loads I started with checking out 250-300fps faster than published when fired through the PCC. Quite a stark difference in recoil!
  8. That's good to hear, I just pulled the trigger( that was funny on this forum) on the short stroke kit for my Taccom3 buffer. If it's half as good as everyone says it is it will be 20$ well spent! One question.............I have the bolt weight out now, the recoil was softer this way. Should I expect to be putting it back in ?
  9. That load is really hauling the mail, almost a 143pf ! Are you shooting an MPX ?
  10. Yep, same story here. The plastic one (NFA lower) wasn't holding the Glock mags. Odin is the way to go !
  11. I had to cut my grass Thursday after work then it started raining. Moving a friend tomorrow, will definitely try it out Sunday ! I also mounted my 45* dot tonight, so I have two things to work on ! I only made it a bit wider at the top, the picture is a bit deceiving. That was the last swing, if it jams even once I will index the ramp out of the way again and swear up and down the whole thing was for lightening purposes !
  12. Nice, and great info, much appreciated. One question to you........................... My primary optic right now is a Bushnell TR25, the offset is( will be when I put it on this weekend) a Vortex Viper. I will be replacing the Bushnell this winter, with either a C More Railway or a Holosun 510C. How do you like the Holosun, weight wise? The 510C is 13oz, almost a pound. The C More is 5 or 6 oz's. I purposely built this gun as light as possible, no tactical reason, I just wanted to see how light I could build it. Mounting a just shy of a pound dot on it would go against everything I did when I built it, so I am leaning toward the C More, unless you un convince me .
  13. When I added my Taccom3 buffer system, the lock the bolt back way to load went bye bye ! Not to be confusing, the bcg will still lock back. But...............if you pay attention to the amount of effort needed to accomplish this task, you probably don't want to just send her home ! Besides, why would you want the bolt to lock open anyways ? Propper stage planning and big enough for any stage mag extensions make that kind of a moot point ! Even if you have to make a reload, you do not want the bolt held open !
  14. Got it ! The Truglo looked like it was pretty decently made and it was about half the cost of some of the other name ones you have heard of. One question, I was going to mount the offset dot behind the other optic. I see from the picture posted on here that fellow did his the other way. Is there any right/wrong way, better way or it doesn't really matter as long as you can hit something with it ?
  15. You're the one who I believe said this is a lot of effort for zero return. I get the bad joke, pretty lame.
  16. Well I did and here it is. I looked at the picture of the ramp Max has in his barrel and it was much wider at the top. So I opened mine up at the top a bit and broke the sharp edge going into the chamber. I won't be able to shoot it until Thursday, but every round I cycled through it in the basement chambered and ejected. This was with three different mags with three different bases. One was an ETS with an MBX mini stuffed as full as I can get it. I mentioned on a different thread tonight about the Glock mags having a lot of up and down play in my lower, I have pretty much gone exclusively to ETS or Magpul mags. This feed ramp may have a little more " forgiveness" if a mag is a bit too low ?
  17. Funny this topic came up..... I have a Truglo 45* offset mount being delivered tomorrow. I bought a Vortex Viper for a carry optics gun for next year, but for now it will be the 45* dot on the PCC gun, we will evaluate after the season is over. I was a switch to weak side guy up until now. It was TOO SLOW ! The other problem is as someone who shoots everything two eyes open, I had to close my right eye ( dominant) to see the damn dot on the left side. No clue why, but it really sucks when you forget to close the one eye, waste time looking for the dot, then remember. The Truglo mount is 25$ and I had the dot, why not ! If anyone is wondering why the Truglo it's because the other ones I found mounted the dot higher, like the Warne in this thread. I was afraid it would interfere with my other optic.
  18. I was just talking about this on a different thread, I was having fits with one certain Glock mag, and the bad play is up and down more than front to back. I would have a round stick on it's way in, slap the mag on the bottom pushing it up and the round would feed. This was also with the factory plastic mag catch, I now have an Odin. See my new post tonight on my feed ramp thread, I may have solved that issue ? My theory is pretty simple, and I"ve stated it here once before. The notch in a Glock mag on the left( pistol) side has a steel insert, the right( most PCC) does not. The mag I had issues with was used quite a bit. Newer mags were better, but not perfect. The plastic the Glock mag is made out of is soft, as was the plastic mag catch. These two things combined led to the mag and the catch both wearing a bit, allowing the up and down play. With the Odin aluminum catch and using all ETS mags now, the problem seems to be gone. The ETS mags are very hard plastic and will not wear. I have never held or touched any other lower. I would be curious as to how this issue is/was eliminated ? I am thinking the JP and the QC10.
  19. Count me in, other than the 21rd Magpul mags, all my big sticks are ETS. I had been having trouble with Glock mags fitting too loose in the gun, I think I know why. The ETS mags are much harder plastic and fit and function well! I tried one with a TF +10 basepad but there was a step in the back, so no go. I have one on an MBX mini and another on a Dawson +4 base, all good to go there. One thing though, keep them clean on the inside and spray a little WD-40 in them after cleaning.
  20. The 21rd Magpul mags are spectacular !! They drop empty, or close to it. I also use them for first mag on a mandatory reload stage. I grab a downloaded ETS big stick for the second mag. I thought I saw somewhere they were coming out with a 31 or 33 round version, I never read about a 27rd mag but that would be sweet also. One thing about Magpul mags, THEY WORK !
