I want to say "Every time my daughter brings home a new boyfriend" but that would be a lie. I clean mine every time I shoot them even if it's only 20 rounds.

:rolleyes: Well I wouldn't call it HORRIBLE, it's about like any city. There are a few large parking garages fairly close to the Capitol but they fill up fast for an event like this. As to having to walk blocks through horrible, drug infested ghettos, I work downtown very near the Capitol...

I'm an IT guy and I screwed up the picture post. Oops. :o See above

TIPOC: That is correct. This was my best 3 shot group left handed at 25'

I had tried that but it didn't really help much. The visual acuity in my right eye is not as good as my left. Which is probably why the left became dominant. Anyway, the progress has made me excited to go to the range again this weekend instead of being ambivalent about it.

I am cross-dominant and don't normally do anything left handed. I have always shot right handed in an isosceles or modified Weaver stance because offhand just didn't work well for me. I am using a Ruger P85 MKII and I routinely shoot ~3" - 4" (or larger :rolleyes: ) groups in (barely) rapid...

I thought it was (surprisingly) even handed.

Watch any slow motion video of a handgun firing and you will see that the bullet leaves the barrel before there is any recoil effect. You will also notice that most of the recoil would lift the frame off the rest. A bag or other soft rest should work fine.

Au contraire, mon Frere. There may be SOME Speer, FC, and Hornady that are crimped but far from all. Why waste time hammering out a primer and resizing the pocket when 9mm brass is so cheap (or often free). Not worth the aggravation to me.

I also sort by headstamp. If you take the time to sort you can pick up all kinds of case condition issues. I have found SP primed .45 ACP brass, crimped primers in 9mm, one or two cracks etc. If you can weed those out it saves time when you are on a roll.

I have been using BE for a while because I had a bunch of it. I typically load 4.6g of BE behind a 200g LSWC with a COL 0f 1.25" and do pretty well with it. Anyway, I recently got some W231 and was going to work up a 200g LSWC load. In the process of looking through my manuals I came across some...

1863 Springfield with Whitney Arms markings on the stock. 1873 Springfield Trapdoor. Both used as test rifles by the Schaghticoke Powder Company and are marked S.P. Co. on the bottom of the stock. ~1905 Winchester Model 94 rifle with the half octagon barrel and takedown feature in .32 Win...

I live in Rensselaer County too. You probably have better chance here than anywhere else in NYS. So, stop whining to us and start the process. OR move to Vermont, they have almost ZERO laws about handguns. It's only 32 miles to Bennington. Oh, BTW, unless you are LE you won't get an...

I'm sorry to stray from the topic but the line about the dogs bowel being an automatic dog food dispenser caused me to blow coffee out of my nose. It is, in a way, but after processing so to speak. ;)

Thanks for the tip on the trigger. It came in the mail today and I broke out the Dremel tool and installed it in the P85. I haven't had a chance to shoot it yet but even in dry fire I can tell the difference. Wolff springs should arrive Monday along with some Hogue grips and a Hogue...

I have been reloading and shooting .45 ACP for a while and have had good accuracy in my Ruger P345 with the 185gr LSWC from MB. I just acquired a Ruger P85 MKII and want to start reloading for it too. I am curious to know what style and weight boolit gives y'all the best accuracy in similar...

Nakanokalronin, interesting post on the trigger change. I know the P85 and the P89 have a lot in common. Would this work on a P85 as well? Oops, read the rest of the post you linked AND checked some part #s. It should work OK. THANKS!

Damn, now I have to get one.:banghead: This is a target using a rented P226 in rapid fire at 35'. 3 in the 9, 4 in the X, 7 in the head and 1 flyer. I'll take it.

Here it is.
