    Ranger Firearms in Fort Walton has Bullseye, HP-38, and IMR4227 on the shelf. Going for $32/pound.
    Glad 1# will load a LOT of rounds.

    Ordered 2 sets of 45° iron sights off Amazon, as well as a Burris PEPR 30mm mount and a Weaver kaspa 1-6 scope for my .300 Blackout pistol.

    Been needing to get a grip sleeve or something for my XD as the grip pads have worn down pretty good over the last 3-4 years and are pretty slick so I thought I'd try to make my own first for fun. I didn't want to use grip tape since I carry this gun and I couldn't find any rubbery friction tape so I thought I'd try the canvas kind, it adds a good amount of grip but I don't think it will be very resilient. I heated it up pretty good to try and make it bond but I don't have high hopes for it.

    You putting a longer muzzle device on that pistol?
    I plan on it... it just has a birdcage on it now and is recessed about half an inch from the end of the rail... I think I'm going with a Noveske KX5 to get the length out there...

    Go to Lowe's or Home Depot and pick up a piece of peel and stick stair tread material. You can cut it to fit the grip and it works amazingly well.

    I don't really want to use anything that coarse, i am going to order a rubberized kit from eBay or the kit they sell on PRP.
