  1. I checked with Mike early this year he was working on some 617s barrels, with 627s possible in the future. Seems like this might be more trouble than its worth.
  2. I would assume this would work? Trying to figure out a way to get a lighter barrel on this guy, Really dont want to spend $1500 Plus all the usual upgrades to go lighter. thanks Squirrel
  3. I had the same issue, tried Dillon, mighty armory, rcbs and Lyman. Finally one day I tried an old Lee resizer, you got to be kidding. After trying dies that cost x5 the Lee worked go figure
  4. I ran a Ruger PCC for two years. Since I'm in CT I can not have the others mentioned. The pros of the Ruger is that it will eat anything, low of stuff included. It's pretty reasonably priced, check the used market. There is some aftermarket add-ons. I think if I was going to get back into PCC I would get one of taccom barrels. The cons, triggers are ehh even the aftermarket ones arent super great. ) If there was a better trigger this would be my selection hands down.) It's heavy, this can be a pro and con. I can not complain as I bought two of these one for irons one optic, made it pretty well with both.
  5. This is very subjective. My belief again just my two cents is as follows. When starting out the gun should be relatively heavy for the shooter, again this varries with person. As the shooter becomes better the weight of the gun gets lighter. My reasoning behind this is, when starting out your shaky, lack transition skills and trigger control is not the best. When you get better speed becomes more of a factor, as you have somewhat figured out the more basic skill sets. Hence going to a lighter gun at that time.
  6. I have been thinking of this myself. I do the typical .358 in a 9mm case for my 929 but wonder when seating and crimping do the dies swage them down to a .356/7 ? If i went to a 357 cylinder cut down this would solve this.
  7. It probably would help if i could feel my fingers too
  8. I think the weight of the return spring plays a significant roll in able to double tap. I run an 11 lb one on my SC setups so split follow ups are not as critical for me. However in the little bit I know I can tell the difference, the 11lb makes the trigger sluggish for sure. I feel as my experience grows I will up the return on those mentioned above as well. But its sure nice having that five and half pound pull.
  9. That's exactly what I'm talking about, thanks!
  10. My 750s case slide is making an odd sound it sounds like a "buzz" or something along those lines. It does not seem to affect performance or function, however its kinda annoying. I have taken everything apart and cleaned the components. I also have applied a little touch of grease to the ramp part. Is this just a quark these presses have? should I grease the slider and rail too perhaps?
  11. I have sent a letter to the hospital requesting a hearing on the f is going on. Currently I have not heard back on this. What I know I was in a good place for once in the past year and then this. Well at least I got a couple weeks with out worrying. Next probe in 6 or 7 weeks. One thing that I have learned is that if you want anything don't you must be your own advocate, fact.
  12. Thanks guys this is what I was thinking. I have the UFO light kit on it now.
  13. Hi, I have a 750 and just got the mini bullet feeder to play around with. Do you guys prefer taking out the powder check station or combine seating and crimping in one? This will be used with 38 Shorts if that effects your choice. thanks Squirrel

    Mine is swearing like a sailor while taking 20 mins to find a tool for a 1 min job
  15. Berrys 100g RNHB was the bullet I was using at one point. These had exceptionally accuracy using 3.5g of Competition. PF might have been a bit under 100. I was using these out of a 5" M&P 2.0. The only thing I did not care for was the slide feeling sluggish. When i revisit carry optic later this year I plan on bumping up this load. A chronograph is pretty helpful in this situation just to check the standard deviation and spread. As i am not fixed on a PF but strive for consistency.

    All this talk of cylinder spinning reminds me of days when I was serious about golf. I had a pretty bad habit of excessive waggles. In fact my coach in high school used to call me Sergio if anyone plays golf you understand. When I started shooting competitively I always used to shake my left wrist to slide down my watch. I mean how stupid could I be after the first shot the watch is back to where it was. Oh the dopy things we do.
  17. I know nothing about IDPA, but you really can not take a sight picture when given make ready?

    I spin the cylinder before closing. Does it have any affect on functionality absolutely not but have done it for a number of years
  19. 1/4" 400 is minimum. Anything less will dent and cup. Trust me I tried this a few years ago before getting heavier plates.
  20. And rimfire revo never made it off the ground
  21. In my opinion the the draw to SC is that you can shoot basically anything you already have. Many of the other disciplines require X gun, X holster, X mag pouches, X clothing, and X ammo, SC shoot what you have. This makes the bar low for entry and as Z said above if someone new likes it after trying it a few times they will invest in the gear. Okay that being said I prefer centerfire handguns, but then again I'm the odd one out shooting a wheel gun. However that being said I have shoot all the rimfire divisions and PCC's as well. I will say this if rimfire was taken out of SC I believe the impacts would be very negative to this sport. Yes it does suck that at many matches only a few people shoot centerfire, but then again Im really running against myself in any division. Yet it is nice to see that time and day how you stack up against someone else.
