On another board, several posters were discussing their Chinese modified 1911s, that had been converted to 7.62 Tokarev. Magazines had been elongated for the longer Tok cartridge. The magazine well, likewise, had been lengthened. I am not pursuing this as a practical matter, but...

I am utterly amazed! :what: Finally got around to loading up some of those 300 grain XTP's in my Contender. I used 2400, went all the way to Hornady manual maximum. The highest velocity I recorded was 919 FPS. This is quite a bit below what my Hornady manual says I should get from a...
