      9mm 147 gr Blue Bullet USPSA minor PF load

      Having some trouble tracking down reliable data. Probably because I'm so new at this and not understanding everything I'm reading. Hoping someone here can help me with my first reloading experience. I have two types of bullets from blue bullets and I'm trying to work up a load with Alliant...

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      Thanks for all of you being willing to educate me on this So instead of fully unscrewing it and re-staking it I just left it as-is. It's pretty tight and I didn't turn it very far so I think I'm good. I don't get home much so it took me until today to get back to it and get it all...

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      I'm probably coming at this a little dense but just so I understand. Once the screw is screwed in completely you take the punch and give it a hard hit to set it (or stake it)?

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      When you say restaked do you just mean screw it back in it or is there a tool for this? Haven't been able to find much on that

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      Thanks. I'm a lot more calm now. I watched at least 3 videos and multiple posts on detail stripping specifically a shadow 2 and none of them mentioned the staking so it really freaked me out. I haven't been in the game that long so I'm learning all the time. This is first I've seen of a spring...

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      So I was stripping pins out of it today to fully detail strip the frame. Up to now I've only detail stripped the slide. So I looked at the screw holding in my mag release spring and trigger spring. It didn't look at the correct angle compared to what I've seen in videos. I start to turn it...

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      Thanks for all the advice. Small update: called CZ. They were pretty nice. Best they could quote for warranty shop time is 4-6 weeks but he said their gunsmith has been doing about 3-4 weeks lately. When I explained this was a competition piece and we are currently in season he said if I...

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      Couple other ideas I was just curious of your opinions on Increased power extractor spring? My gun was obviously shot before. A bit of black was everywhere as if I had shot a couple mags and not cleaned it. I'm assuming they put some rounds through it at the factory because I bought it...

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      Interesting concept that came up while googling. Someone mentioned rounds not fully seated in the magazine correctly and once he made sure they were all the way back and "seated" this stopped happening. At least one of my mags is a b*tch to load full and it is possible some of the rounds...

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      It does. Everything is stock right now. I just meant that in the sense of "maybe I got a defective or badly installed spring"

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      When you say chamber check do you mean to manually cycle it? I did that once last night and it pulled about 6 rounds in a row. I wasn't looking closely though so maybe I'll do that and pay closer attention. Could this be a break-in thing? It sounds like that's not the case since everyone is...

      I have a 50 round pack of Armscor. Prob not enough to be sure but I'll give it a shot.

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      Thanks for the validation on that. For a firearm that I've always seen perform before now, to get my own and be disappointed like this was upsetting. I will call CZ tomorrow and see what they say. Still open to suggestions though. I don't know much about CZ's but I'm pretty sure the...

      New Shadow 2, 10+ FTE in 400 Rounds. Is It Me?

      Took my new Shadow 2. First rounds fired were at USPSA. First stage went fine, stages 2 and 3 I had more than 5 failure to extract. At least 2 of which the round was still fully seated in the barrel. At first i thought it was me. Maybe I was limp wristing or something because stages 4 and on...

      USPSA at Warsaw Rifle and Pistol Club July 14th

      Thanks for another great match! The stages were more challenging for me than anything I've seen yet. Normally I help break everything down. I apologize that I was unable to do that today. I received a call that required me to leave very quickly. Thanks to my squad for letting me shoot...

      Northern Indiana Sport Shooting Opportunities

      No. And I'll tell you why. Because we already have websites for this. They're just put together in a pisspoor fashion. I'll take my point you quoted above a step further. I'll start by mentioning that club websites I have nothing against. Most of them are operated on a volunteer basis...

      Basic Shadow 2 Upgrades?

      Same. I GOTTA MESS WITH IT! My G34 has $100's under the hood and you could never tell. Only thing on the outside is a set of Dawson sights
