Cimarron; I have tried 185 gr JHP, 200 gr SWC and 230 gr JHP. The 185s were best with a 8" group at 25 yards. The others were sprayed all over the target.
My original question is about the difference between the ID of the bushing, .582" and the OD of the muzzle, .576", on my PT1911. The .006" clearance seems sloppy and excessive.
I have tried to research on several forums, catalogs and publications the proper or optium clearance or "fit", but can't find that info anywhere. Does anyone out there know what the proper fit should be?
My Pt 1911 is still "on vacation" with Taurus in Miami and should be back in about four weeks. It'll be interesting to see what they actually did under warranty.
