GhostDog Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 In & on! Beautiful made, same colour and finish as original. Shoots flatter and softer, although not much. 9.5gr D037.1, 124gr FMJ, spM primer. PF ~172. Big surprise was the effect of the weight reduction. The gun is much more “pointable”, less nose heavy and feels lighter. I’m happy with it! Just reloaded 5k with above recipe, but I’m curious what the effect of more powder would be. Could benefit from half a grain more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhostDog Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 (edited) I shoot IPSC, minimum is 120 grain. Want to try 100gr for steel, do you have a recipe with D037.1? Edited September 15, 2018 by GhostDog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For 100gr loads I generally don't change the powder drop, just whatever I'm loading under 115s, I've pushed 100gr bullets over 1,650 with SP2, the difference is dramatic!

GhostDog Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 that’s pf 165... Good to know, thanks, I think I will start with a little less! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GhostDog Posted September 22, 2018 Share Posted September 22, 2018 Tried it, 100gr RN, 9.0gr D37.1, oal 26,40mm/1.040”. A little less powder and a bit more space. Big fun! Shoots like a loud .22lr, dot returns so fast you perceive it as steady. Also very mild recoil. Cost is about the same, otherwise would consider competing in minor...

robert.a.brewer. Posted September 23, 2018 Share Posted September 23, 2018 Just wondering, but what ever happened to the first new comp, the 1.5 oz one, mentioned in the first post? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Through a miscommunication with the machinist, the first batch came our with a one degree angle between the comp and slide, which he fixed on my second batch with the fourth port: if you want one, I have a whole box I'd sell at a deep discount.

robert.a.brewer. Posted September 26, 2018 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I've shot a few matches with this new comp and really like it, the fourth port adds a lot in flatness and softness I like it a lot Just curious, how much longer is the comp than the original CZ?

Sneexies Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Does it feel noticeably different vs the stock comp? Not in terms of weight, but comp action? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interested as well. I'm not bothered by the weight, but if there are gains to be made by the action, then I'm likely in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abb1 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 (edited) I am very happy with the results of the new comp. it is lighter and I do notice a slight reduction in muzzle rise. I love the fact that my gun is no longer nose heavy and weighs in at 45.3 oz.. Definitely a keeper and an improvement, although my gun has been called ‘pinnochio’ though .

So you said you have slightly more muzzle rise, but does it track back on target sooner? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you said you have slightly more muzzle rise, but does it track back on target sooner? Sorry, I did not word that correctly. I changed it to say 'I do notice a slight reduction in muzzle rise'. There is more flatness to this comp, but it would be more notable with higher pressure loads. My scores have improved with this comp, so I would say that the tracking has improved.

I guess theoretically it should, with less mass in the slide and barrel, but the difference would be very small, the recoil spring weight has a lot more to do with cycle speed.

Stmark73 Posted December 28, 2018 Share Posted December 28, 2018 If I chase the threads on my barrel to fit the aluminum comp, will I still be able to use the original comp? Don’t want to tamper with the original barrel if the original comp would be deemed unusable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
