For God's sake, buy what you like, or don't.
Don't try and convince me that my XX$ 1911 is a stupid decision, or that my favorite 1911 should be a Glock.
Nice gun Jimmy.
I carry 4", "N" frame S&W's.
For hunting/field use I like the "El Paso" "Tanker", or whatever they call it.
Works with a coat and backpack, even insulated coveralls if you zip the front down for access.
When it's warmer I use a Kirkpatrick belt rig that's fairly comfortable.
9mm out of a 1911 or P-35 is not, what I would call "snappy". In fact, is a pussy cat from the 1911 and very manageable in the P-35.
I would fault your platform, not the caliber.
"High precision equipment"?
Have used Manson Finish Reamers (by hand) to lengthen leade on a dozen pistol barrels, all turned out perfect.
If you've had issues using "hand" reaming I suggest you're using the wrong reamer or doing something wrong.
Manson's reamers are self piloted and basically...
95% of my cast bullet loading is for hunting revolvers.
I use gas check KTSWC's and WFNGC.
Due to substantial recoil I've found it important to have enough case tension in addition to a heavy crimp to prevent bullet "jump".
"...full length guide rods ad a touch more weight in the front of the gun helping in recoil. also pretty standard in Bull Barrel guns. The 1911 works with either, as its function is to only hold the spring straight. I prefer 2 piece though do have bull barreled 1911's that have the FLGR. "...
I had a "Loaded" 9mm that was the worst, most problematic pistol I had ever owned.
My vote would be an STI. I have had good luck with their guns at that price point.
.....I have one with a red ramp front / white outline rear and one with a fiber optic front but I don't shoot them as much and find that when I do, they seem to force my eyes to focus at the sights and not the most important thing "the target"......
With respect; this is in direct contradiction...
