    Here's my 9mm ladder reloads target. These were all at about 8-10yds (although more realistically I'd say about 8yds as everyone estimates distances are longer than they really are) and the target size is a typical 24"x36" target.

    Progression of the groups was left, then bottom, then right, then middle, then neck, then head. I think the neck grouping is the best balance between reliability and accuracy.

    Left had FTEject and failed to rack the slide
    Bottom had FTEject
    Right had stovepipes on 2/5 shots
    Middle worked great
    Neck was better groupings and good recoil
    Head was a little more wonky where the group opened up a bit.

    Though I still might do some testing with that neck load, because the holes in the paper look a little oblong, like the bullet went through sideways, which I don't really believe. They might have just made bigger holes for some reason.

    Denver has this sweet deal where any DoD cardholder can breeze right through security. It's our first time flying with an infant and it took us less than 5 mins to get through security. Thumbs up for preferential treatment!

    After tomorrow, I'm gonna try to stay off the Internet for the next week or so... We'll see if the NSA comes looking for me...

    yeah, I just got on my flight from MSP to GRR. Family all pitched in and rented an 8 bedroom beach house on north Lake leelaneau. 2 miles from Lake Michigan, 10 miles from Traverse City. We'll have a speedboat there and my brother is bringing his Shelby Cobra.
