  1. So I just reloaded some 9 major and used blazer for 10 rounds and for some reason this is the only brass that I'm getting set back with when I chamber a round. I have my case mouth flare set super shallow with win and FC brass so it barely flares and I notice it flares the mouth more on blazer. But after the crimp it is about .001 larger at the mouth, putting me right about .3770. Just like any other brass I use but blazer sets back almost .004 which is unacceptable. Why is this you think?

  2. Do not hesitate to run a Glock in Open. I couldnt be happier with my decision as I was looking at 2011 and cz as a possible open gun. I went with an open glock 17 using all Carver Custom parts, cmore and angle mount, 4 port comp---tried the sjc, Carver beat it by quite a bit in my opinion and the Carver wont crack, glock parts are cheap and and plentiful and if you like to shoot glocks already and dont have issues with that, you will enjoy it for sure. About a grand worth of parts gets you there with 1 +12 extension. Also mags and extensions have been absolutely reliable. I load all the way out to 1.1615 with Hs6 (usually 1.1550 but wanted to test it) @7.7 grains gives around 171 power factor. Have loaded silhouette as well at 7 gr. Same 171 power factor. Hs6 wins over the 2 but dont mind the silhouette for I may have to use it someday.

  3. So with sorting I have accumulate thousands of CBC, GFL, PMC, S&B, and some of that Browning stuff..wanna say probably not a great idea to load the Browning 9mm brass to major because that deer head logo is cut into the case head? How about the other brands named. None of it is stepped..threw all that stuff out.

  4. I do keep all my nato stuff and size and decap then swage primer pocket by hand.

    As for setback..that's interesting. I've never had an issue with setback at all not even .001 in after hand cycling 10 times or more. I am using dillon dies, my sizing die I do not touch the shell plate, it is backed off enough where a 3x5 card will fit in between the die and shell plate snugly. Neck tension is outstanding.

  5. Just wanted to show how well the stuff I use works on lead and carbon. I am not sponsored by nor am I payed by said company just want to throw the info out there for anybody having issues with lead build up and carbon build up. Use gunslick foaming bore cleaner and I suggest everytime you clean the pistol which should be everytime you shoot it. Anyways, 30 minute soak in the barrel and comp is what I do the scratch away the lead and carbon with a dental pick. Works great.

  6. Just load major always and be sure the gun is tuned for it. My Carver Glock17 with the 4 port comp and kkm barrel at 170 of with a non captured rod and 15lb spring shoots softer than a factory glock. I never expected that but now that I fully understand all the aspects with reloading and how everything is working and what's affected by what and by how much, it all makes sense.
