    Hello: I would agree about the lighter powder charge so that is why I like the 16" barrels. My load for 124's is only 3.1 grains of Tite Group and is 131PF. Thanks, Eric

    Thank you for this..I plan on trying Titegroup as I just started loading my own 9mm.. 

    I saw an older post that you used to load WST in your 9mm AR,  and I have a ton of it.

    I am starting testing at 4.1 Gr with 124 Xtreme plated at 1.145 oal. Any tips on what worked for you?

  2. wow my Hahn was nice, but a case separation destroyed it.(thin sidewalls).  Since you want LRBHO.. Instead of a cheaper block, I'd honestly recommend a Blem dedicated lower. My PSA was $109..

  3. Yes and No, if it's the old Oly 9 it had the ejector pinned in the upper methinks, which would be the prob, and usually used Sten mags although Colt style could be made to work. 

    I had a Hahn top loader for 9 years or so until a case head separation blew the thin walls apart and totally distorted the body. Hahn graciously offered to give me half the purchase price toward a new unit. I got a Blem forged lower for $99 instead

    Just for a point of reference, I have a newer GMR-13 (bolt is 1pc with no removable weight) and it weighs 13.5oz. 

    My Blitzkrieg buffer weighs 6oz, for a 19.5oz combo.

     

    Weight your bolt both ways and see where you are.  

    Ok I finally weighed all components:

    RRA ramped Bolt with wt&pin removed-12.16 oz

    Weight & Pin -3.52 oz

    Blitz Buffer- 6.08 oz

    Buffer and Bolt with Weight removed -18.24

    All 3 with Weight -21.76 oz

    These are exact weights on Scale certified for trade by the State

    Hello: What color is the follower? The problem you may have is the base of the follower is hitting the Taylor Freelance base pad lip. You may have file the base pad so the follower goes into the base pad. Thanks, Eric

    If these are Colt/Metalform they will be stamped and welded Steel , the crappy ASC/Cprod are plastic but can be made to work also

     

    ETA: NVM I thought this was a coupler

  6. Just testfired with Fed 115 grain C.O.P.S. which looks like Am Eagle but in a Blue Box. No failures in 200 rounds, and gun feels slightly softer with Blitzkrieg buffer and weight out.  I forgot to bring the weight to try. I'm thinking weight in with Fact Ammo and weight out with lighter handloads,. Seems plenty accurate offhand at 25 yards. And no bulged or split cases with the Blitz buffer, weight out and Wolff XP Carbine spring.

    feels harsh to me but less harsh than before..

  7. I have a 7 lb Colt style PCC that runs very well with no parts breakage thru 2K rounds..but a lot of recoil with a Slash9 style solid stainless steel buffer.

    I have the Blitzkrieg Hydraulic buffer and JP Spring on order. It has an old school RRA bolt that was ramped years ago. 

     

    Is it a good idea to try it with the Carrier weight removed in addition?

     

    Is there a standard goal for complete bolt weight?
