    I have an '87 Speer manual that says 5.7-6.4 for 115gr bullet (TMJ & Hollow point, .117-.114 ballistic coefficient) with Unique powder (1106-1215fps). I did my first batch of reloading recently with older Unique powder (red/gold can), though it was for a 124 gr bullet, but the data from this manual worked for those.

    Oh man, 2 of those stages are painful for me to watch. I shot okay, but either forgot my reload plans or had a premature slide lock-back (?). On a positive note, all those years of ballet and jazz tap paid off for the qualifier. ;) Thanks for ROing to both of you. If someone shows me how to score sometime, I'd be glad to help out with that.

    I'm also going to throw in a plea for folks to come out early to help set things up. We are way short of help this month as we are down 4 regulars who usually design and build stages.

    We get there at 8am to get things going, getting there by 8:30am is usually sufficient to help out.

     

    I'll be there around 8:30 to help out. Looking forward to it.

    That's totally usable. I've only done 2 USPSA matches, with a Sig Pro SP2022 in 9mm (no external safety), 4 mags (32 rounds is max scored per stage I think, 10 in each in the production class), Blackhawk serpa holster and pouches. I just use my everyday belt, which works fine at my level. So you can get going in USPSA for the price of a holster, pouches (or just use your pockets) and 2 more mags.

    This will be my first match ever. I need to sign up for the USPSA as well. I hear you can do that at the match. Do I have to reserve a spot or anything? Someone hellllpp

     

    Yup, I signed up for a membership at the Shongum match - $40 for the year and it pays for your first match too. I think the limited # of spots is for the Topton 3gun match... right?

    I have an older Essential Arms lower and the Pmags I have from MidwestPX aren't dropping free. It'll pop down a bit, then seems to bind on the rear sides. Should I just sand the mags until they drop? Seems simple enough, but wanted to see if any one else had this issue. I've heard some pmag runs were a bit large. I don't have any steel mags to test with to see how they work in comparison.

    I'm interested in this for my first pistol match, weather/schedule permitting, I will email Ron before Wed... As far as the rifle match, I would be interested, but haven't looked into the requirements/rules for this, but would be interested in giving it a go if I am able to. (I have only 2 mags, no mag pouches) If I read up on the rules on the USPSA site, should I be all good with the knowledge from the intro class? I just have an AR with Red dot and iron flip-ups. Thanks.
