Favorite load right now for IDPA is 4.8 W231 under 115gr FMJ. Gives me about 130PF out of my Walther PPQ and Wilson 5" 1911 9mms.
Very clean, excellent accuracy.

I like both W231 and AA#5.
I'm currently using AA#5 in all my 9mm loads because it meters so well and I can use it for all bullet weights and easily make power factor for IDPA.
The other nice thing is that it is a higher volume powder so there is not so much air in the case like some lower...
Went and shot my P22 for the first time in a while today, about 100 rounds.
Funny, mine HATED Remington Golden Bullets, they wouldn't extract :barf:
Loved Federal Bulk Pack (Stuff I've had for years and plenty in my supply)
Loved just about everything else, ESPECIALLY the Aguila SSS...
My 13th SW1911 pistol (a Gunsite model) had a loose trigger new out of the box. S&W fixed it on their dime in 7 calendar days to my complete satisfaction.

Had issues with one I bought "as new in box" from Legendary Guns in Phoenix. They had taken it back in trade from a customer who said he didn't care for it. Turns out he had broken the two backstraps on the gun due to "dissassembleidiocy". They hadn't even checked it for function before...
Use the search engine and search for "Walther PPS" as there have already been several threads started on this.
Also visit www.waltherforums.net for even more discussion on the PPS.

First I didn't like it - thought it was Ugly.
Saw my friend Ken's photos of his - Warming -liked it :)
Bought one sight unseen - First impression? Nice....
Not cheap feeling or cheaply made IMHO. Certainly as nice as P99C and HKP2000K. About the same size as my Springfield EMP...
I'm VERY happy with my STI Trojan 9mm. It is very accurate but I'm using it mainly for IDPA and steel gaming. Shot it today in the DPC Steel Metal Mania match and finished 9th of 29. Had the Dawson Fibre optic sight installed up front and was very happy with the purchase from Dawson...
Les Baer hands down.
Concept II or Premier II with tactical package or the Thunder Ranch Special.
Once you get a Les Baer, you'll want to sell your others to buy more LB. :D
James
I've shot:
- SW 952 (don't see those too often) :)
- Springfield EMP
I'm waiting on my Les Baer Premier II 9mm to come in and it will be my ESP gun from then on.
James
No, I'm sorry, didn't mean they make you drop it from slide lock. Actually, now that I think about it, most people do retract the slide, show the empty chamber and then some let it go forward without easing it down, but maybe some do ease it. As long as you show an empty chamber, slide...
Well if you shoot IDPA or at any kind of range with Range Officer's they will MAKE you show an empty weapon, drop the slide, point it at the berm and pull the trigger before you reholster to assure an empty weapon.
If your 1911 can't take it, get a different 1911.
I don't make a habit of...
1. Smith & Wesson USA Company with excellent service
2. 1911Sc will be lighter than the LTC with steel frame (although there is a LTC with alloy frame).
3. 1911Sc finish holds up better according to owners (search the web for Para LTC finish problems).
4. Did I mention S&W has the best...
Got me a EMP today!
Well, I found a LNIB EMP today and brought her home to clean her up. Disassembly was not as difficult as I imagined, not bad at all. Very tight, no slide play at all. Trigger seems a little heavy, I don't have a gauge, but I'm guessing 5-5.5 lbs.
Only thing I noticed...
Yes, if you want a tack driving range gun. Not practical to carry, but good for steel matches and target shooting.
Trigger is not as nice as a good 1911, but the Single Action Trigger IS very good.
If you like unique superbly accurate guns for your collection, it would not be wasted...
Les Baer Premier II or SW1911PC Melonite
These are two superb 1911s and I own both of them. The SW1911 Performance Center black melonite finish gun is executed flawlessly. It is very accurate and beautiful to boot.
I just acquired a Les Baer Premier II with the tactical package. I also...
