[QUOTE="UnSafe, post: 2238530, member: 100"] I'd planned on taking the lightest practical pistol I owned- my eldest daughter's G19. Haven't shot it much, so I spent time shooting yesterday. I sucked with it so badly, I went back inside and grabbed a 1911 just to confirm that I hadn't lost my marbles. I shot fine with the 1911, so started hunting for enough mags and ammo. Found mags but the only non premium ammo I had in bulk was the last of a problem batch that's been sitting for 10-11 years. It has 225gr bullets that were sold as being ok for 45LC or ACP. They fed like crap in my 1911s and they got tossed into a box. But, after a trip back through the press for a bit deeper seating and Lee FCD treatment, they run well through my G21's sloppy chamber. So, now I've doubled my pistol ammo weight which still isn't that bad. At least I can hit what I'm aiming for. Stuck in Lawton for a 2 day medical class, then a straight shot to Tulsa tomorrow for a quick family getaway. I'll head out from there early Saturday for the match. I'll be the guy with smokey pistol reloads. Hope it's hot! [/QUOTE]
