    870 and 3 gun

    in my neck of the woods, its not unheard of to have slug shots at full size ipsc steel at 80-120 yds. This is at our local matches and bigger ones. A 20-28" vr barrel, good trigger press and rifled slug is all you need.;)

    Trouble with my Springfield Armory Loaded 1911 9mm

    it can be weak mag springs and a recoils spring issue too. The 14# are too strong. a 10 or 12# spring will be fine for plinking ammo. Clean the mags also if they feel gritty.
