Re: Four European .32 wudcutter pistols

Maybe he will accept $995 for all of them, and all you have to do is Western Union the money. Sounds fair, or a crook.
Wudcutter, woodcutter (misspell), 32 or 38, pic is of only one 32, new poster, etc.

Scam, all day long.

Re: New bullseye pistol

What state are you located in? And what type of matches do you shoot ? Also, I see a lot of shooters where I live who shoot 1800's and the CF gun is a 32 or 38. They don't shoot 45 at all. I shot a 32acp for a season. Scores were as good as with my 22, but I needed to shoot my 45 more to improve so ...

Re: Which is the best 45acp seating die

I agree with many of these replies. I had previously "set it and forget it" and had loaded thousands of rounds, all of which were shooting great. My Hornady seating die broke when a JHP loaded crooked. Hornady sent me a new part (free) to repair, but since the press was down, I began to mi...

Re: Which is the best 45acp seating die

I use a Hornady 5 station Lock N Load press. My seating die is the 4th station. 5th is a Lee factory crimp die. I decided to buy the Redding comp seating die as it seems like a great choice for the 185 JHP's. I called Redding and spoke with a tech guy for a bit and he explained why this is a great c...

Wait until you break 590 two matches in a row, then worry about buying pistol shoes.

Good point. I'm probably over-thinking. That tends to happen among the target shooters.

What are the best ISSF legal (pistol event) shoes available?

I am looking to buy shooting shoes, legal for ISSF pistol events. I see that Champions Choice has shoes at a good price. Before I buy a set, I'd like some feedback. I am sure the CC ones are a great bargain. Also curious if those CC shoes tend to run big or small, or if their size chart seems to mat...

Re: Walther SSP or Pardini SP New

For those that feel the Pardini is muzzle heavy, simply remove some or all of the weights. I've experimented with that. With the weights removed, it felt closer to the muzzle feel of a 22 / 1911 conversion muzzle weight. With the steel weights in, it felt just right for bullseye. With the tungsten w...

Re: Buying first target pistol; have a few questions

Pardini, by far. Easy to shoot and the best service available. Only major difference with a RF Pardini and a bullseye version is that the RF bolt was lightened making it a better RF cycling pistol. The heavier bolt of the bullseye pistols make them slightly more accurate at 50 yards. Just buy one th...

Re: Springfield Range Officer: EIC Leg Matches?

I used a bone stock Springfield Range Officer to shoot my leg matches. I got points every time and made distinguished in 5 matches. Awesome gun. I think it's probably a 3-4" gun at 50 yards. Great accuracy for the money. I bought it used for $600. Was more than good enough to compete. I had a n...

Re: custom .45 for Bullseye

I recieved a new Springfield Armory wad gun this past April. Two months later I set a slow fire record with it 50 yards, 197-11. I've shot a couple more 196's with it also. The gun is awesome. Holds X ring all day with my hand loads and with factory GM Federal 45 Ammo. They cost around $2,000 (some ...

Re: Planning to buy a new .22 sport pistol

Pardini SP....trigger is adjustable to exactly what you want.......super easy to service and clean......can digest all types of ammo reliably......and the track record speaks for itself.

My opinion is 100% to get a Pardini. You will never look back or regret a Pardini.

Re: Pardini HP 32, ammo talk

My opinion is that the sweet spot in velocity is about 850-870 fps, with 860 being the goal? With a 2.0 charge of bullseye, I suspect Velocity to be close to that area. Looking forward to seeing those as well. I have some bullseye and will try that for my next group of 32 cartridges.

Re: Pardini barrel mount scope rail

The LGI part mounts to the barrel shroud. So, when you break it down to clean, the rail and optic remain attached to the barrel. I have used this for two seasons and it hled perfect zero after breakdown. In the picture, you will see that I also modified mine. I wanted my red dot to be very low so I ...

Re: Loose Hornady XTP .32 acp 60 gr

I had the same problem at one time with my 32 loads. The brass needed to be sized down a bit more to load the small Hornady bullets. I was using a Hornady resizing and depriming die that resized them down properly and solved that loose bullet issue. When loading the larger lead 0.315" bullets, ...

Re: New CMP Rules: How Are They Working?

To become distinguished you need at least one leg with 8 or more points. Not many matches these days sport enough shooters to make it realistic to win that many points. May be the rule change will attract more people. I did not know that, so thanks for posting. I'll have to try and get my 8 out at ...

I did not have a CMP "legal" gun under the old rules. This year, I broke out a 100% stock Springfield Range Officer, that I paid $600 for. At the regional a couple weeks ago, shot well enough to get 6 points. Kinda cool I was able to use an affordable gun that I already owned, and try out ...
