[Polymer bullets with .357 diameter?]

Thanks Darrell. That's one I haven't tried.

I don't know why they separate them but you can order 9mm projectiles in .356 in their Special Order Profiles section here. All I order is .356 for a slightly different reason: I was having leading issues with all other brands bullets and Blue Bullets seem to have done the trick. I didn't have leading issues with BB .355 projectiles either but decided to just stick with .356 since common wisdom for lead projectiles is that all else equal .356 is a better bet.

OK. Thanks for that!

Just ordered some IbejiHeads 135 gr. I also ordered from some .356 diameter 124g and 147g from a place local to me, Summit City Bullets. (Good prices) I'll test them all out.

 

Thanks!

I don't have a PCR or know what your use is but for action pistol I've found the Blue Bullet TC .356 diameter to be plenty accurate in a Shadow 2 and P10F. It may be worth trying a different profile or the .356 diameter if you haven't already.

What I'm seeing on BB's site lists their 9mm as .355, and I know they are not shooting as accurately through my PCR as SNS' .357s do. I wondered if it was the other elements of my load. Based on reading different threads, it does seem others have noticed a difference based on the diameter of the bullet, so I'm going to start there. 

[Polymer bullets with .357 diameter?]

Thanks for all the replies. I can definitely find .357 now.

[Polymer bullets with .357 diameter?]

I just found out through experience and verified through searching around on the net that my CZ likes polymer bullets with .357 diameter. I had been using SNS. They have been shutting down to deal with backlog. I have been wanting to try Blue Bullets. Got some. Not near as accurate in my CZ PCR as the SNS. I searched around and found out CZ often like .357 best. Next is .356. .355 - not so much. Well, I can't find another polymer bullet that is .357. Everything is .356 (ACME, Bayou, BBI). Is there another 9mm polymer bullet that is .357?

SSGGlock - Good to know. Thanks!

Master-Tac will happily make your holster with a Tech-lock. The combat loop default is the same screw pattern as the tech-lock, just works slightly differently. Email him, or message him on Facebook. Tell him Evan sent you.

Sounds good. Will do. Thanks!

[Holster question?]

Some good suggestions. Master Tac looks nice, but doesn't have a Tek-lok option. How many people use that vs. some kind of loops?

[Holster question?]

I'm going to start shooting IDPA. I carry AIWB, so I need to get an OWB holster. (Love all the acronyms!) I've heard different answers about whether Red Hill Tactical's Competition holster is IDPA legal. Does anyone know for sure. Here is the link if that helps: https://www.redhilltactical.com/CZ-Competition-Holsters_p_14.html

 

Also, I'm open to other suggestions for holsters. I'm going to be using a CZ 75B. I will also be using this holster for USPSA initially. (Going to start shooting that too.)

 

 

[Hammer restrictions for Carry Optics?]

there is no production division in IDPA, 
inclusive list of allowed mods in ESP can be found in 8.2.2.2
With exception of sights lasers, and overall weight... Yep ESP rules.

 

Yeah, I meant SSP. ... I checked, new hammers are allowed in ESP. Thanks!

[Hammer restrictions for Carry Optics?]

I just bought a CZ pistol. I'm going to Cajunize it. Their site says there are restrictions on the hammer for Production division. Is there any such restriction for Carry Optics (which, if I understand correctly), follows ESP rules?

You can shoot it in Carry Optics and I'm there most of the time. Will be there on the 23rd.

 

Cool - on both counts. I plan on being there too.

In no way.

 

Just to be sure (I can be slow at times)... I can shoot a Shadow 2 in IDPA Carry Optics - correct?

 

Also, I'm in the Fort Wayne area. The IDPA match I plan on starting to shoot at is the one in Wabash (on 4th Saturdays). Do you ever shoot there?

 

[How to get a CZ Shadow 2 to make weight in IDPA?]

Nice gun Jeff O. My question is (based on what I read above) - Does the weight and size limit you are trying to achieve to shoot in IDPA SSP apply to a gun being shot in IDPA Carry Optics (which from what I can tell, goes by the ESP guidelines)?

If you make weight, yeah you could shoot esp. That's 43 oz with a mag in it btw.

 

If you shot CO, a provisional division in IDPA, you get the same 45oz weight limit you're used to. So why not shoot CO in both?

 

I am interested in starting to shoot both IDPA and USPSA this Spring. I want to use an optic for both. Would love to use a Shadow 2 for both. Are you saying I can use a Shadow 2 (with an optic) for IDPA CO? And, do I have to have weight taken off, or will it work as is?
