Re: 7x57mm loads for a rolling block?

Are you willing to bet your life on your opinions of this rifle? I would get it to a good gunsmith and have them look it over and get their opinion on the loads you want to shoot.

Re: Opinions sought, Kimber vs Springfield

I shoot JHP in my Kimber Custom II without any problems. In fact, I shoot most anything without problems in the Kimber.

You should have it broke in good, after 400 or 500 rounds. Have fun!

Re: Purchasing a 1911

Many other manufacturers make 1911. I just bought a Kimber Custom II and this is a look-a-like. Remington, S&W, Ruger, Taurus, and Springfield, among others make 1911's. Many to choose from.

I look for the wear marks on the barrel and slide. If there are much wear on the slide, you know it has been used a lot. This is like buying a used car. You look past the "Looks" of the gun.

Re: Kimber Custom II questions

It is a used gun. I will look carefully to see how many rounds have cycled through the gun. I have enough rounds (230 gr JHP) to break it in if necessary.

Re: 243 Loads anyone?

You had better get a reloading manual or two. Searching the internet, for loading information, is going to be deadly for you. Never trust any loads off of the internet.
