Omg you gonna shootz itz!!!I'll hopefully be ringing those plates in Andover next week...

I’m not too worried about it...the finish matches on mine, and the Remington Rand frame I got was actually in an over run of serial numbers used by Colt. The only way I know the frame is a RR is by the FJA inspector stamp.My only requirement would be that the slide and frame match whatever the manufacturer; Colt, Remington, Ithaca, Singer, etc. That would drive me crazy.

Looks just like the one I used to shoot!
The plan is to feed it a steady diet of +P+ ammo.Will it feed wad cutters
A good wad cutter will leave a cleaner holeDo wadcutters actually help your score at all? I always figured a generous rip from a traditional bullet profile would be more likely to go in your favor in terms of breaking a higher ring. Then again, with a wadcutter you're getting a consistently larger diameter.
They do leave nice holes, maybe I'll buy some wadcutter profile bullets for 38 spl to load.
They do work real well out of a .38 special. Nice clean holes.They do leave nice holes, maybe I'll buy some wadcutter profile bullets for 38 spl to load.
Will full wadcutters feed?

Always an experience being in the pit when you’re slinging lead...sounds like kids throwing rocks at the paper.Has me thinking , 30 cal 200gn swc for my 1903a3 200 yard cmp matches?
My Ranch Dog Flat nose leave a pretty decent cut hole but a nice wad SWC might be better, plus it will cause some head scratching and Naysayers
Do those work in any auto loader? I can’t see that they would.Semi I can see working; question was full wadcutters.

Quick test, load empties in mag and see if they will feed and chamber with hand cycle.Semi I can see working; question was full wadcutters.

I think I have some left, I will look at some point and load up a few. Or I will just load some 185 swc backwardsS&W 52 was made to shoot them and it does so amazingly well. I've never seen a full wadcutter in 45acp though
