PCC only loads

[Joe D]

I don't shoot USPSA. No interest in it. I shoot IDPA.

[Fasthenk65]

best result so far (accuracy and least dot bounce) slow powder, fast bullet so:

 

VV N350: 5,35 gn, 115 gn Frontier RN at 1,126 OAL

but how many USPSA/PCC matches have shots out to those distances.

 

While I understand wanting to have good groups out that far, I don’t see it mattering for most stage setups, especially 100 yards.

 

I shoot several with targets at 100, a "group" at 20 is "buckshot" at 100.

Even a 2" group at 50 can easily be 10" at 100, depending on barrel or bullet, or velocity.

CK Arms 14.5" pinned barrel

Clean Shot 3.1.gr

Blue Bullets 124gr

Federal SPP

OAL 1.10"

PF 129

 

Shoots soft and hardly any movement

Shooting steel challenge I don't have to worry about PF.  The softest loads that cycle reliably are

ADM lower with CMMG RDB 16" barrel: 115gr Bayou, 2.8gr Sport Pistol, 1.145"

FM Lower w/ Wiland 5.5" barrel: 115gr Bayou, 2.8gr Sport Pistol, 1.115"

 

I'm going to try 2.7gr, but I'm probably as low as I can go.  My wife having taken over the FM lower rifle I'll be running an 8" CMMG upper on the ADM lower once I have the tax stamp in hand.  We'll see if that shorter barrel works with the same 2.8gr load.

Both rifles are very soft shooting.

I have a Taccom ULW Barrel

4.0 gr of Titegroup
124 Gr. Precision Delta HP
1.140 OAL
136 PF

Very soft recoil.

This thread is about PCC loads.Let's stay on track, kids.

[xpierrat]

Steel challenge shooter here so my PCC is built different than the standard USPSA PCC.... since I have no power factor requirements my loads are quite different... I am using a Taccom  super feed ULW barrel rifle is a touch over 5lbs in the optic configuration, ... my load is currently 2.4 grn of Bullseye, WSPP, range pick up brass, and Berrys 100 grain plated heads, OAL is 1.080... buffer is the Taccom 3 stage with the Short stroke set up and no weight in the ESSB.also removed the two aluminum spacers. 

 

My question for you reloaders out there is what effect should I see when I play with OAL... say 1.060 compared to 1.10 assuming the round in the longer configuration plunk test ok

You will lose velocity.  That's all.  The longer you load with the same powder charge, the lower the pressure and the lower the velocity.

Sport pistol is something I haven't tried.  Sounds like I should give it a try if it is available.

What buffer system and does your bolt still have the weight? I tried this exact load on my PCC setup for steel challenge (no weight in bolt, taccom 3 stage buffer but with the Delrin plunger instead of the steel) and While my PF was also 136, I found the recoil to be rather harsh. However, the dot returned fairly quickly and my double tap groups were pretty good, not great, but good.

I've been using 130gr plated bullets for 38 super with great accuracy.

Guys, what do you think about using some Factory loads for Pcc ? Any good experience, if it's possible to compare these to selfload ?

Is this in a long or short barrel PCC?

Factory may be too hot if you are shooting it out of a 14" or 16" barrel.  You generally gain 100-200 fps over a pistol length barrel.  When you handload you can compensate for that.

long one 14,5"

 

[Ericm1231]

Blue bullets 125TC with 3.3Grains of titegroup or Blue bullets 135TC with 3.1 grains of tite group.

The 125 shoots a little lighter but the 135 match my handgun load and feed better in the bullet feeder.
