Griffon 1911 update 3-9-06

The Remington Golden Saber 185 gr +P ammo I ordered came in the other day. All as expected, except, the 5 boxes are not all from the same lot! Maybe I should have requested that, on my order?
Anyway, they came from 3 different lots. To work around that problem, I’ve decided to use the odd box as practice rounds to be sure the Grif is going to feed them, (along with my two boxes of old carry loads, for a total of 75 rds). Then of the 4 remaining boxes, with two different lot numbers, I’ll will give my son, two matching boxes, and keep the remaining two matched boxes for my own carry loads. I would have rather had all rounds from the same lot, but I guess this will work.

For the primary range report, we’ll be shooting the 1. Golden Sabers 2. PMC 220gr hardball, and 3. Wolf 220 gr hardball .
If the Grif feeds them all reliably and accurately, I’ll call it a go.

Still waiting for the Sight repair, spare mag., and holster.
But on the bright side, the weather is looking a lot better for an outdoor shooting session!
