I almost forgot how much I like to shoot my Stainless 5" 9x23 Even if I always shoot Supers in it.
I shot the monthly IDPA match at South River Gun Club (Atlanta) yesterday. It was one of the harder matches that they have had. Lot of partial targets at distance. That pistol is just so smooth and easy to shoot it even makes an old duffer like me look like I know what I'm doing.
I'll see if I can find a pic later.

Mike, why always shooting Supers in it?

Well 38 Supers are 100% reliable in it and I have 1000s of super cases.

I generally shoot 125gr fmjs in competition loaded at 1200fps. Which is a great load. It cycles the slide rapidly and has little recoil. 125 Power Factor loads are just too slow in the pistol even with a 10lb spring. I found myself waiting on the gun all the time.
So I went up to 150 Pf and I like it better.
This pistol shoots 1" or so at 25 yards with my reloads and under 1" with Georgia Arms 147gr Gold Dots carry ammo.

Any luck finding a pic Mike? Scott is building some awfully nice guns. :smile:
