Thank you postino for helping me get my balls out of my purse...haha. After reading your post, it made me say" just go shoot the dam thing". Quit freaking out and shoot it.
I went to the range and put 50 rounds through it without one single FTF or FTE. Man.........am I happy!!! My accuracy wasn't too bad, but then again I suck shooting pistols. Give me my AR15 whth my Eotech and bi-pod and I'm a lot better...heh. All in all though not too bad.
I picked up some of my brass to see if there was any bulging, splittiing, or anything wierd looking. Also I measured them for stretch. All looked good.
Fireing pin strikes:
Spent brass:
All checked and cleaned:

BTW, excellent looking barrel vise...How did you bore (or ream?) the taper???

I took the barrel and put a 1 inch peice of tape on it and measured the diameter on each side of the tape. Did the trig and figured the barrel was on about a 1.14 degree angle, a 2.3 degree included angle. All I had was a 2 degree end mill in my tool box so I plunged it through the block then split the block and used my had grinder to spot it in. Oh yeah.....before I split the block I tapped and reamed two holes so I could use sholder bolts to locate and lock the block together once split.
