... I just got done reloading about 300 rnds of .40 S&W. I go through 200-300 rounds every week between practice and IDPA / USPSC matches. Fun stuff . . .

Very nice, The XDm is very very sweet, pretty easy to redo the trigger to about 2# pull too. I was tempted to swap from my Glock 22 (4th gen) for one, but had just invested in a new match grade barrel for the glock.

Had I gotten the XDm first i could have saved myself a couple hundred $$. Damn glocks bulge the shells making reloading from a factory barrel a bit dicey. Glock's chambers are loosey goosey to allow for fewer jams, makes for really reliable use with fresh ammo, but weaken the cases when you have to resize the deformed brass when reloading. The XDm's come with match grade barrels and are quite a bit easier (& safer) to reload.

You need to come shoot out here in "free" AZ ;) One gun club so close to my work, I can go out at lunch and pop off a few hundred rounds and still make it back before anyone knows I was gone !!

You probably heard we ain't in the prisoner-takin' business; we in the killin' Navajos business. And cousin, business is a-boomin'?

It may look unassuming, but its handmade, matchgrade with a 3lb trigger, north of $3k ;), has about a 90 day wait list and is worth every penny . . .

... and the business end ...
