BigBets Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Could I get some expert opinions on the best 9mm open setup for running ammo in the 150 PF range or above. Mostly for 3 gun. I need to buy the parts and my builder will build anything but I am new to open and especially good barrel/comp/slide weight setups for this application Thanks Jacob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrianATL Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Lightened slide with titanium cone comp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LilBunniFuFu Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 Light slide, light recoil spring, super light bullet, really slow powder. What kind of rig are you going to run, race holster, Kydex, WRS type stuff? Because you could always just run a hybrid type ported barrel and a slide mounted optic and run it in a retention holster.

Hi-Power Jack Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 My TruBor will handle PF 145 and 170, with a 10# spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garmil Posted November 14, 2015 Share Posted November 14, 2015 I have a tanfoglio with a 3 port comp no holes in barrel. Running 100 grain RN at 1400fps with 9.5 grains aa#7. Feels really good and what I will run in 3 gun unlimited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBets Posted November 15, 2015 Author Share Posted November 15, 2015 i will be running a delta point on a traditional arredondo mount. Looking for barrel length/comp/popple hole combinations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramairbrc Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 I loaded 125gr bullets with 9.1 gr of AA7 for a 170pf. I experimented with 115 great bullets with the same powder charge, and they were 152pf. So, I don't have to adjust my 650 press for Major or steel loads, just change the bullets! And both are zeroed right in. I use an 8 lb recoil spring in an STI Trubor. Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Hello: Your best bet would be a Tru Bor with no holes, 8lb ISMI recoil spring, 17lb ISMI mainspring, standard guide rod setup. As you get used to it you can lighten up the slide some. I would also use 115's, HS-6. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 i will be running a delta point on a traditional arredondo mount. Looking for barrel length/comp/popple hole combinationsFull size gun with5"bbl. lightened slide with Cheely Ti comp and you won't need holes. Put an 8lb variable spring in it and shoot everything from Wally World stuff to MAJOR PF with no issues. What you may find out is the gun will perform better with full power MAJOR loads so you want to leave that door open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kneelingatlas Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Lightened slide with titanium cone comp Who makes a Ti cone comp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echotango Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) Don't think anyone makes a 1pc ti cone/comp. Steel cone with ti comp usually. Edited November 19, 2015 by echotango Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

echotango Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 (edited) Is it Ti? I believe titanium is not recommended as a bearing surface. Edited November 19, 2015 by echotango Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

echotango Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 All the links above are for titanium comps, however there is no titanium cone. That is my point and that's what was asked above. I have titanium comps but have yet to see a titanium cone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
echotango Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Also a titanium comp and steel cone vs using a 1pc steel cone/comp will add about 1/2" to the length. Not worth the weight saving on smaller comps. I have a 2011 steel gun that weighs 32oz with a steel cone/comp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 Hello: Titanium and steel combo not good for a bearing surface. Bull barrels are better to fit and easier to change out. I like stainless steel or steel comps. No need to lighten the front end that much on a pistol just lighten the slide. Thanks, Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
