S&W686 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I received my new CZ 75 CTS 40 S&W from Shooters Connection this afternoon. This handgun is beautiful and was surprised to find that the gun came with three CZC TS 40 S&W 21 round magazine. For anyone who has this gun can you tell me what O.A.L. you are loading your reloads to. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vixty Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 1.135-1.140 My TS can get up to 1.160 with 180gr BBI but its iffy. But most including myself stay around 1.135-1.140 for the TS/CTS. The mags are what limit max COL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

himurax13 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 I don't load past 1.140" on a TS. I actually prefer 1.125" to 1.130" with the Bear Creek 180g and 200g flat points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CZinZA Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 1,134 for me, for both 180 and 200 grain bullets Sent by Jedi mind control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yz125mm700 Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 (edited) I asked this in a another thread but I'll ask it here too. I loaded up some 180gr round nose blue bullets at 1.118. I have not got a chance to shoot them but I loaded up a couple mags and tried to cycle them through the gun. I get at least 2 or 3 in a mag that get jambed on the ramp at a 45 degree angle. Is this a normal occurrence, should I wait to fire a few before I start to chase a problem? My original thought was the bullet profile but it seems no one's is having a problem.

CZinZA Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 I would try loading longer. 1,118 is quite short for .40 Sent by Jedi mind control Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
