Aimpoint 9000sc

Anyone using a slide mounted 9000sc? If so, what is your load info?  Looking to find a good reliable powder weight with a 185 jhp and 185 swchp, preferably bullseye powder. Thanks

4.2- 4.5 BE 185jhp 4.0-4.2 lswchp your gun many vary depending how tight it was put together and the springs you use. I haven’t made any drastic changes to my gun to shoot 4.2 BE 1.2oal .470crimp was using 3.8BE 200lswc before. I don’t have any targets just a blah performance score card.

I’m using 4.1 BE 11 lb spring 190 swc

3.4 BE 200 lswc short line 3.8 BE 20 lswc long line.

You know what they say about a picture....

Yea, I’m gonna try that 4.2.  Lol

I love my Ultradots because I haven’t had any issues and they’re affordable. But the more I see those Aimpoint 9000SC models the more I think about buying one....

My pistol built by Jon needs 4.2 WST under Magnus 185gr #801, on my home cast H&G 68 185gr I have to go up to 4.6 WST, I attribute the difference to bearing surface length.

Do you know what the velocity is with these charges or possibly what you'd be using for an amount if using Bullseye powder instead? just curious - I shoot bullseye and only shoot 200 grain LSWC. I've only played around with the 185 grain bullets a little. I haven't really fully explored that type of bullet. I've just been very pleased with 200 grain LSWC so I haven't bothered to venture out much.

Recoil spring in the "beast". You made me look. I decided to clean it while I had it apart. Just an FYI the poundage lines on my home made spring scale were calibrated using new Wolfe recoil springs. I have a lot of springs so I had to make myself something to reference. It turns out that the recoil spring measures about 11.5 on my trusty tester. It really will be close to that. It probably was a 12 new.

Can you please take another photo, that shows how this device works?

Had one in my computer. I originally had it marked in inches then changed to actuals.

Now it's clear - thanks!   I should try to make something like this...

I wouldn't mind having a Blah scorecard like that!

Sorry, not real sure on the velocity.
