  1. GJ, thanks for the quick response, as it is the info that I needed as I don't have any loading manuals anymore. (gave them to my g-son) :) The reason I'm interested in Green Dot is that I just picked up a pound, I got lucky. Hope to see you at a match sometime in the future. Regards Blaze
  2. Pards, WST & Green Dot are both basically shotgun powders but since WST has found to work well with .45 ACP shooters, I"m wondering if anybody is using Green Dot in WB? Both have about the same burn rate, so I'm looking for loads with both 200 gr & 230 gr bullet to meet 150 power factor, anybody? Regards Blaze
  3. Thank you all for your replys, I'm putting them in my memory bank. Regards
  4. Pards, On the SASS Classifieds, there is a post on Hollow Base Bullets. Out of curiosity, I clicked on it and "Bear Creek Supply" was cited as a source. Upon further review, on .45 ACP bullets, B. C. S. stated and I quote "one of our bestsellers, a 200 gr RN without a (STUPID) SWC shoulder, unquote. Really? I thought the SWC shoulder was vital for .45 ACP dependability? As I am about to order a supply of bullets I hesitate until more experienced pards chime in concerning the SWC shoulder. Regards
  5. Boggus, thank you for your last post that was exactely the info I was looking for. Hope to shoot with you sometime in the future. Regards
  6. Pards, Thank you, respondents, for concerning my questions on recoil springs. I have put them all in my memory bank. I have an additional question; when the slide travels rearward, after ignition, and bottoms out, what is the total compressed length of the 1911 recoil spring? Regards
  7. Pards, Is there any way to check the "rated" resistance of a re-coil spring? Also how many rounds would have to be fired, aprox. before the factor of "diminishing returns" kicks in with a recoil spring? Any thoughts? Regards
  8. Thanks, Pards, that is exactly what I needed to know! Now I can forget them. Thanks for the speedy reply. Regards
  9. Pards, anyone with experience with Wilson Combat recoil buffers? Was wondering if they are worth the bother to use? Regards
  10. Howdy Back 40, I remember that post of yours about the holster, hope you get it back. I took your lead and posted a similar request on the SASS wire, using some of your verbiage. Hope we're both successful. Regards
  11. Boys, I am surprised! According to the SASS wire (merchant corner) mag pads became legal on June 27, 2019, and there hasn't been any chit chat on the WB Form, or am I missing something here? To be legal the following rules are in effect.(quote) 1. It's made of natural leather material only 2. It is no larger than the contour of the base of the magazine 3. The total thickness of the base pad may not extend more than 1/4 inch beyond the original base plate (unquote) Regards Blaze
  12. Thanks pards for the info input. Its been invaluable Regards
  13. Pards; there is some interest in BAMM matches here in So Arizona, as two of our top shooters are involved in it. Is there a written format for BAMM that I could download? Also what are the most popular rifle and calibers used? There is a local gun show coming up on May 18-19 that I will check out. Regards
  14. Thanks for the reply Joe, I knew it would be enlightening and very complete. I will pass on the RIA and maybe invest in some TRIPP mags instead. Have a great Thanksgiving, and Merry Christmas Regards
