Nice. Well, if you don’t want a part to come loose, you know what to use.

Installed a Thuderbeast Compact Break and used my Thunderbeast CB 30 Cal. can. Without ear protection, it sounds like when you unplug an air hose from an air tool.
Gotta to love it plus it looks sexy as hell!

I just went outside and shot 30 proof loads thru my Colt Delta Elite, on general principle. (130% SAAMI 180gr HP, Starline brass). No smiles on anything except my fat ass. No explosions either. Carry on.

Since the search and rescue group I used to support with smileamazon is no longer active I changed my smile association to SAF.

Finished up the latest project: 22 Creedmoor 20" 1-8 Twist MDT Oynx Chassis Nightforce 5.5-22x56 Gemtech 30 caliber suppressor. Before anyone asks, I am using the 30 Caliber suppressor due to the sheer gas volume of this cartridge. This thing will shoot a 80.5gr Berger at 3250 fps...

Pffft, no reason needed, I have zero issues with using a .30-cal can for a .22-cal bullet. In fact, my .223 can typically stays at home and my .30-cal can goes to Montana with me to tame the vicious .223 recoil.

A few weeks ago I had about five minutes to shoot my new Sig P322, their new .22 model. The first few shots were great, then I started getting light strikes about half the time. We were shooting Aguila ammo at the time, and it seems that this is fairly common for the P322 when loaded with Aguila. Today I went back to the range with a little variety of ammo: Sure enough . . . it was 100% with everything but the Aguila, and had about 60% light strikes with the Aguila. (This was a different batch of Aguila, btw.) I'm still blaming the gun, since other guns shoot the Aguila just fine. Presumably the Aguila is harder to light off, but it should be able to handle it. I guess now I know why the P322 has such a nice light trigger . . . . Oh well. I can live with it, it's a nice pistol otherwise.

I've had the same experience. Well, let me ask you about another experience.... Mine was shooting low. OK, no problem, the rear sight is super easy to adjust, which I did. However, the rear sight keeps dropping down after a few shots -- like the adjustment screw is just a little too loosey-goosey, and maybe needs some weak Loctite on it. So fuggit, I just removed it when I got home, and added a red dot sight instead. Have you had any issues with the rear sight?
