I have found that my new GP100 has pretty "tight" chambers. I'm finding that if I don't use the Lee Factory Crimp Die for handguns, my reloads tend to stick in the chambers, requiring me to tap on the ejector rod to break them free.
I even bought a box of factory ammo for it to test, and they all shot and ejected just fine.
The good thing is that it is apparently going to be a shooter, as long as the nut behind the trigger (me) operates correctly.
It is a pleasure to shoot, though... this was my first target of today, before I started twitching and jerking the trigger...
This was shot at 7 yards, standing, unsupported.

I have a hone that I can use, if I choose to do so... still deciding....
That charge of AA 5 is nowhere near filling. It's like using Unique. It doesn't appear to fill more than 1/3 of the empty space, once the bullet is seated.
I was looking for a moderate load to use with cast, pc'd bullets. These chronograph at 1100 fps +/-

detonation risk?
I suppose it not matter in something as beefy as a Ruger?

This is a legit load from the manufacturer's website load data.
Similar to loading the 38 special with small charges of bullseye powder for target loads.

I'm not going to celebrate yet .
According to a couple channels, like Colin Noir, it has to go through the Senate with no changes.
I think you'll agree that we should continue or start praying that this and more freedoms are restored.

I am beginning to get more comfortable with my S&W Shield in .45 ACP.... this was today, 7 yards, one shot at a time from the low ready position. Pull the gun up to eye level and fire....
I also shot the new SP101.... these were moderately warm .357 loads at 7 yds... 158gr plated bullet at approx 1200 fps...
