    Scoped pistol accuracy (6" Python at 50 yards)

    There was a guy at the range with a 6" Python, rested & seated, that shot a 6-shot group the size of a quarter at 50 yards. He said he could do that all day, but I didn't see him shoot again. Is this common for a 6"? Does anyone have a set-up like that in 10mm or .357 with 100 yard data?

    10mm 1911 clones: do they hold up?

    Check this site too: http://marina.fortunecity.com/harbour/347/10mm02.html I think a ramped barrel is designed higher pressures for 10mm, and the olod Delta's had 2 springs, with most replacing them with single 18-22 pounders, compared to 16 on a .45. Some say they shoot 18 on low power...

    Semi-Auto "Condition 3" carry

    12Many, MadMagyar, tbtrout and others: THANKS :banghead: It is hard to have a basic discussion without being drafted into full-scale combat in here. If I ever do decide to carry (in the woods) and pop a can, I'll check for injuries first and be sure the can is not drawing down an AK on me...

    Semi-Auto "Condition 3" carry

    I have no need to carry cocked and locked, and feel pretty good about "Condition 3 - The chamber is empty and hammer is down with a charged magazine in the gun." For range practice, does anyone know the proper "military" procedure for drawing and racking. By military, I read somewhere the...

    6" vs 8" Pythons

    Jake, Jake You are right on my verbal error. I know the pressure's not reduced; what I meant was that the pressure was not all "used up" to drive the bullet to a higher FPS (from being diverted out the ports). My guess would have been that the 8" would raise fps maybe 20% over a 6", but I...

    6" vs 8" Pythons

    Can you add comments to my thoughts? For range practice and accuracy, the 8 will give better sight radius, but what about FPS/FPE benefits over the 6? Assuming porting the 8, will that give the same FPS as the 6?, or does porting not take ALL the pressure out of barrel so that the 8 might...
