goldfish Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Just curious. Why clean it every 10 rounds? Can't do that in a match. Link to comment

Just something we say to do for break in.......comes from my Bench rest days......now, I slap the barrel on (it's 9mm!!!) and shoot the crap out of it!!! Mmmmmmight clean it at the end of the season....HAHAHAHAHA. But I'm the manufacturer......don't you do that!!! Link to comment
Mark Meyers Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Looks identical to the one I'm building. same upper (extreme feed 14.5") same stock (MFT Minimalist) same trigger (hiperfire) same optic. Only difference is lower. I have an FM 9. Can't wait Link to comment
Mark Meyers Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 Did you put in the taccom buffer system also? Curious how it felt Link to comment

I did use the Taccom 3 stage buffer system...I only shot it about 140 rounds thus far using 4.2gr TiteGroup with 124gr bullet... I found it a bit snappy but the dot barely moved .. I plan to take my chrono to the range later this week with different loads to see if I can fine tune buffer system, cartridge load & bullet to the gun.... I also have a Blitzkrieg buffer & .308 spring I want to try.. the quest continues.. Link to comment

What made you go to 4.2gr of Titegroup? seems like thats on the high end but I'm new to the reloading aspect. Link to comment
busdriver Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 4.2 seems high to me too. I load 4.0 with a 124. Makes 153 pf with the pcc (16” Taccom barrel) and 133 pf with a 1911. Link to comment

I’m thinking a tad over 1200fps Cecil build looks good Link to comment
busdriver Posted March 19, 2019 Share Posted March 19, 2019 I stand corrected....carry on. Link to comment

cecil Posted March 20, 2019 Author Share Posted March 20, 2019 I plan to chrono this weekend our local range has law enforcement training sessions all this week...no civilians are allowed to use the range... will post my findings on the Blitzkrieg & Taccom recoil systems with reduced powder loads as soon as I can gain access to the range...

mdriskell Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 I'm curious as the the findings also. Just got my 14.5" extreme feed complete upper and the FM billet lower will be in tomorrow. I chose to go Blitzkrieg HD Buffer and both recommended springs to find out which works best. Hiperfire 24c trigger will be on the way shortly. Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk Link to comment

Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk I just switched from the rifle to carbine spring using blitz ss shaved to .99” and 5015hd 139 pf 115gr I’m able to stay alpha at 25 yards with a .16 split consistently. Rifle spring pushes me into mid 20 range. At 7 yards I can stay alpha at .12-.14 with carbine. Link to comment

You will have to remove the activator for LRBHO as it hits part of the feed ramp on barrel Link to comment
