i finally shot my chaos in a match for the first time. came in 2 out of 12 in open. 3 master class shooters (even max michel's dad) and a bunch of a class as well. ill take that all day considering its my second match ever with an open gun and the previous was a sloppy trubor! the gun was flawless but i made a rookie move and grabbed a mag that would double feed randomly and took a gamble. i should have ran the string with a big stick even though it didnt need it. the gun was on POINT! i was so happy to have equipment i could count on and daily dry fire was paying off. now to just move quicker and maintain my accuracy while transitioning faster and ill be good to go! out of 41 i pulled out a 3rd overall

Awesome shooting. 

 

I know that you are tempted to tell people that you beat Max Michel....and leave it there. Or was he 1st?

Lol thanks gotta specify it was his dad (a fantastic shooter but not quite his son lol). I have been trying to at least finish close to his dad for the last year and finally passed him. He finished 9/40, 5th in open. 

 

I must say though, he's not usually that far back. Our points were close but my overall time had him.

I'm obsessed with this gun!  Shot large local charity match, 100+ shooters, and grabbed the win.  Check out the videos!  I also got to test my major loads so I can finally start loading major.  Here's the most relevant load:

 

1.175 OAL

124 PD JHP

CCI 500

7.3gr WAC

Fiocchi reprocessed brass

 

Avg: 1371 = 170 PF

 

I'm going to bump it up one more tenth of a grain for my loads and just call it good.  I'm not a big "experimenter" when it comes to loading.  As long as it works, is safe and reliable,  I just pick a load and go with it.

I wish it was my youth that made me a good shooter so I wouldn't have to spend hours dry-firing every week!

nice runs! whats yalls elevation? must be pretty good ways up to need the extra .3 grains to make 170. 

 

Nope, I'm basically at sea level.  Could be that I loaded longer than everyone else?  Could also be the CCI 500.  Some people are using magnum or SRP which will give you an additional bump.

i run cci 500s but i do load at 1.165 so thats most likely it. i didnt see any need to load longer. i wonder if it feels any different....hmmmm....the data nerd in me needs to test this now lol!

Couldn't tell you. Maybe I'll load up a few at that length and test myself.  I would imagine the OAL would make negligible difference to the feel of the gun if it's all you change.  The idea behind OAL is reliable feeding and more room for powder if you need it, because that's what will work the comp.   Let me know if you find anything!

i know longer oal will lower the pressure a bit an give lower velocity (learned that from limited major) but other than that i dont think its enough for any real felt recoil. if anything it will make you run a little more powder meaning more gas meaning better working comp lol

My chaos is built but is in transit through customs to enter Canada.It may take just as long to build just to clear customs.  Cant wait. 

Awesome, will I have an opportunity to see it at IPSC Nationals this year? Assuming the RCMP gets it done in time.

Assume the front piece is threaded to the barrel?

 

Looking forward to your review...  super light slide should yield extremely fast splits...  videos maybe?

 

yes its threaded on.
