Took the 10MM out today for some more range work and reload testing using 165 gr Speer Gold Dots over BE-86 and Power Pistol and the red dot kept shutting off after a couple of shots. Had to keep turning it back on so that’s not a good thing. Checked for lose mount and screws and all was nice and tight. Will be calling Springfield Armory in the morning.
I removed the red dot and will continue to wring it out with iron sites for now.
As for the reloads, Power Pistol won the round as the groups were nice and tight. Definitely feel the recoil with 10 gr of powder (max charge). BE 86 was milder with max loads but grouped quite a bit looser than Power Pistol.
Longshot continues to perform well under XTreme plated 180’s for range fodder.
Even shot another 25 reloads with a stout charge of 800X under 180 XTP’s without fail. So far this gun has not choked on any reloads and factory ammo I’ve fed it.
