Spittin brass

[Tylden]

Just curious, how far does everyone's gun spit out the shell casings ? I bought a CZ P01 this weekend and it was throwing them out about 8-10 feet on the farm. Today at the indoor range, they kept bouncing off the partition wall and hitting me in the head ARGH !!! I had a couple go down the front of my shirt Ouch those little boogers sure can get hot ! LOL

My RIA throws them over my right shoulder about 10-12 feet. My Ruger P-89 about 8 feet to the right and my wifes Sig P232 about 5-6 lanes down to my right!! It really kicks those lil 380 cases out of it.

8-10 feet would be average.

My 1006 (10MM) throws them 10-15 ft with full power loads and a 22lb spring.

Ejection

Heck,I put a new ejector on my Colt Combat Commander and went to the range to try it out. I fired 3 mags(21 shots) and then looked to see where my brass landed.
I looked all around me and didn't see it. I laid the pistol down and started looking. I found the brass had landed at 3 o'clock about 20 ft. away. Never had a 1911 to eject brass like this before

Take a look at the guidelines on Wolff Springs website: www.gunsprings.com

my p22 has its own wheel of fortune, plus the wheel from the price is right.

every time i shoot, it gives them each a big ol spin. the first one decides the direction, and the second decides the elevation. then, BOOM off it goes!

my model 13 just puts them down on the bench

my friend's xd9 will, if you do your part, put every single round into the 6x4" pocket on the lane divider. it's a great trick to show the reloaders at the range

My Arcus, a couple feet. The Makarov sends cases into low orbit, though.

My SKS throws em about 15 feet up and 30 feet to the right...

HA!! Tell me about it. At least you don't have a bra on to act as a catch trap. (At least I assume you don't.) Let me tell you there is some TENDER skin in there.

Funny you mention that Misty. My wife has a nice imprint from a 22 casing that slipped down in there a few years ago.

 

[CajunsMisty]

Believe me, I can relate. I already have one C branded in a sensitive area, and the day after the Dr. wrote an order for a certain test that us lucky women get to have I went to the range and had another cartridge decide to give me a second brand. I have yet to schedule that test.

The Makarov sends cases into low orbit, though.

+1. If I got into a SD situation with the Mak, I don't know if I'd point the barrel towards the BG or the ejection port. A 21lb recoil spring has helped, but it still chucks brass 10-15 feet.

I have no idea. I guess I don't pay enough attention to my flying spent casings.

Most of the time though, they just fall when I push the ejector rod.
