Default Good Evening From Tidewater VA

Well I'm the new guy on yet another forum. I love 1911s. To meet the qualifications for this forum I have two DWs; one a CBOB Patriot from early in the 2000s, that Dave Severn Hard Hatted and tweaked for me and a Patriot Marksman Stainless.

I'm a reloader using Blue Gear. Until recently my favorite load was 6.0 of Universal under a lead 200 gr LSWC.....but since the Spring the local indoor range has mandated jacketed or plated bullets and I'm in the process of settling out on a new load. Tried Berry's 200 SWC over the same 6 gr of Universal, while it is a bit cleaner I could not get them to soot as well. Will try the standard 230 grain plated over 5.5 of Universal and see how that goes.

For perspective sake I'm a little guy 5' 16" and 250#. I stretch extra large work gloves to fit and I'm a bit past the half century mark with visual accuity issues that go with that. I'm a honorably discharged veteran having served in Uncle Sam's Confused Group during the 1980s.

I have to admit to owning a Tuppergun (cheap Factory Ammo) and the 1911 version of the 10 round Tuppergun.
