SNL (Sometimes Not Legal)

[Jake Di Vita]

Regardless of how good you are at reloading. If you shoot the same stage twice, one with a reload and one without, everything else being equal, you will be about .50 faster when you didn't load.

very valid way of looking at it Jake.

It would be nice to have something to protect the bottom of the pad... I spose cause it makes sence and in no way could be seen as something that would increase cap, it will be ruled illegal.

Things make sense...depending on how you look at them.

There isn't a capacity limit in Limited and Open. There is a length limit. From that perspective, the fact that the bumper doesn't add capacity starts to make sense, I think...

Exactly- that is the point I was trying to make also.

I bought three of the SNLs.

I had several mags prior with dawson +1's that i could load to twenty max in the mag but couldn't get the mag to seat in the gun.

With these pads i now have 3 mags that are easily reloadable with 20 in them. I can, if i want, have 21 in the mag on a start and with one in the pipe if i care.

All three fit the gauge.

As far as the durability, I've used them for 5 local matches, dropped on rocks, sand, and hard packed clay. No problems so far.

I think it might have dropped it out with a good deal of rounds in it when it hit I got a pretty good sized dent.

Hello: That dent will come out easily. Thanks, Eric

It will, but every time you stress it you weaken it...

I just got one of the snl base pads. I don't have a guage. How do you measure the mags, from what point to what point? With my calipers I came up with well over the 141.5mm when I measured the full length of the mag. I then measured my other mags with the old dp +1s and they are all long. I figure I must not be measuring correctly.

Thanks, I was measuring to the highest point on the feed lips.

On my Limited mags ithe SNL's made reloading 20 possible without using a sledge hammer, however none of them with Grams springs/followers will hold 21. The good news is they all fit the gauge. Been using them since September and have no durability issues.
