DanM Posted December 18, 2006 Author Share Posted December 18, 2006 Dan, the next few days will c r e a p by in anticipation of your new 650. Congrats on the purchase! Tell me about it! It's like my son who is 6 and I have something is common again, waiting for Santa, lol.. Between that and having TWO houses close on the 29th (I'm a RE Agent) time has STOPPED! I should win a prize or at least get a call from DARPA or something. What really sucks is I need to load up a couple hundred rounds for todays session on my Rock Chucker I SO thought I was done with that thing for a while.....grrr...

DanM Posted December 19, 2006 Author Share Posted December 19, 2006 (edited) 650 should be here Wed. Whoo Hoo! 1. Shot 250 rnds practice tonight at Sams. Paper plates at various distances. Singles, Doubles, and transitions. 2. Rode my bike. Just a quick 30 minute spin just to shake the legs out. Tomorrow I'll ride 45 minutes. A big "Thanks" to EricW for motivating me to get back on the bike and ride. Current weight: 235 Edited December 19, 2006 by DanM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanM Posted December 31, 2006 Author Share Posted December 31, 2006 Riding has been going slow due to Holiday madness. The Glock has suddenly turned into a jam-o-matic. Shooting a practice match is good practice for jam clearing. I must remember to keep finger out of trigger when clearing jams. Here is the current formula. Mixed Brass WSP Primers 4.8 grns N330 180 MG CMJ 1.135 OAL Lots of unburned powder in the chamber, failure to extract, short stroking. So I bought 2lbs of Titegroup and I'll go back to that for a while and see what happens. Plus Titegroup is half the cost of N330 236lbs Stoopid holidays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catfish Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Hey, don't weigh in every day. It'll only frustrate you. Try every coupla weeks... Keep it up, one step at a time!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanM Posted January 5, 2007 Author Share Posted January 5, 2007 Hey, don't weigh in every day. It'll only frustrate you. Try every coupla weeks...Keep it up, one step at a time!! lol...Let's just say that the scale has lived a dangerous life lately. One of these days it just might gain 180 grns I could just see it in some kind of Tony Soprano moment. I come in, all hung over. Step on the scale. "Awe F!@# this F!@#ing S!@#, BAM! Actually, this is one of those cool body fat scales that cost a zillon dollars so the wife wouldn't be to happy... I bought the carbon frame so I really had no reason to not ride at all anymore. The wife tells me that when I get down to 215 I can buy the carbon wheels I lust after. So pedal I shall. Thanks! I took today off the bike after yesterdays near suicidal ride. I'll ride tomorrow instead. 650 started to throw a few primer sideways. I could feel them crunch but no boom. Once I verify that my new load runs ok, I'm going to quit doing 100-200 at a time and run a couple of thousand at one sitting and tweak it a bit.
