    My IDPA loads are 230gr over 4.8 N320, soft and very accurate in both my Baer TRS and Colt Officer's ACP.

    Hope your loads give the accuracy your looking for

    They were very good. I have now loaded 100 each of 4.4, 4.5 & 4.6 for further testing. Pretty sure I’ll end up with the 4.5’s. Being just 200 gr SWC’s they are very nice and soft shooting along with being very accurate.

    Glad to see that the loads worked for you. I will be trying N310 for 45 next, a friend used N310 and was very happy with recoil impulse and accuracy. Of course I will keep using N320 regardless since I also load 9mm 135gr over 3.5gr N320. That is a soft shooting load, specially in full size 1911 & 2011.

    Was out at the range yesterday, was using one of the clubs underlevers firing .38 special. I did abysmally, the gun performed nicely, and it was damned good fun.

    Think I might ask to get one added to my certificate.

    We all have our off days for sure! I'm sure you were standing and firing offhand, so it may have not been as bad (comparatively) as you think.

    Well I was off hand. But at 25 meters with only 2 rounds hitting the target it was pretty shameful ��

    You do that too, eh?



    Honestly I've not been to the range in so long it would take a miracle to do very well at all.

    It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
    This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.
