S&W686 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 I have a Cheely Comp. 124gr Precision Delta JHP 7.1gr Winchester Autocomp C.O.L. 1.165 The reason I said that is because I am new to USPSA and Open Division and at first was not sure if I should go 9 major or .38 super comp. Before I ordered my gun I talked to a lot of people I shoot with and read a lot of post on this sight. The older post seem to go for .38 super comp and the newer post are beginning to come over to 9mm major. When Bobby at Freedom called me before starting my build I asked him if I should go with 9mm major which I showed on the build list I sent him or go with .38 super comp. He recommended I go with 9mm major. So far both guns very well and I am have a great time shooting Open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 I suspect your doubts come for it not shooting as flat as you expected it to? A lighter bullet, slower powder or a different comp would all help that gun shoot flatter. 115s with HS6 would be a big improvement, 3n38 better still (but twice as much money).

I had a 9mm barrel fitted to my gun. Its just a trubor t2 comp in 9mm barrel. Right now, I have only fiddled with 3n37 and 3n38 with 124's. Loading with 3n38 is a little tedious, need to go just a touch slower, getting 8.3 into the case they are quite nearly full to brim, but they do shoot just fine. What is the hs6 recipe with 115's exactly? I want to try... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 What is the hs6 recipe with 115's exactly? I want to try... 8.6gr of HS6 under a 115gr plated bullet at 1.156" got me 166pf in a 5.1" CZ barrel with no holes. I've gone as high as 9.5gr which made 181 in the same gun.

I will give your suggestion a try. How would Autocomp work with the a 115gr bullet? I also did not mention I have 3 poppel holes in the barrel.

Rob Tompkins Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 A major aspect of the game is mental and having confidance in your equipment and ammo helps in that regard. If you "think" one lets you shoot better than the other that's the one you need to go with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With three holes it might take closer to 9gr which is OK to load as long as you don't run the press like a drunken sailor WAC will work too, just a little harder in the hand.
