Title: Round count on my Kadet as of 11-15-14
Post by: Joe L on November 15, 2014, 06:24:07 PM
Last year about this time, I had about 27,000 rounds through my Kadet.  Then I didn't shoot it much in 2014 because I bought a Ruger 22/45 for bullseye and shot it instead.  Then, 11 weeks ago, I put the Ruger 22/45 to the side and started shooting the Kadet in bullseye.  I put 1520 rounds through it in the last 11 weeks.  (None through the Ruger.) 

Near as I can tell from my notes, I shot 1510 rounds through it late last year after the last count but before I put it aside for the 22/45.  So, now, I am over 30,000 rounds with my Kadet and it feels and shoots absolutely perfectly and the bore ID is less than the Ruger, ie, there isn't much bore wear that I can measure by slugging the barrel. 

Oh, one more thing.  I won the October club rimfire bullseye match with my "worn out" Kadet.  And didn't have a single malfunction or alibi.  Other than the solid barrel retaining pin that 75Plus installed for me, the slide is factory.  I can't remember which firing pin it has in it, but, with a 17# hammer spring, the stock one is fine. I probably have a 75Plus firing pin in it.   

I use all CGW parts in the 75B frame and I run it SAO with a 17# hammer spring.  No, I will not run anything lighter than a 17# hammer spring.  Been there, done that, won't work 100%, and it HAS to work 100% for bullseye matches, in my opinion. 

Photo I shot tonight, and a recent video, both showing my current Kadet setup.

This pistol ain't no safe queen.  More like a truck gun with a red dot sight, LOL.  I keep the barrel ramp and chamber clean, as well as the firing pin hole and breech face and extractor.  Rest of the gun is filthy.  Shoots better that way.  I am sure of it. 

What is a "Pardini"?

Lordy, this is fun.

The Kadet Bullseye Saga continues. May it never end.

Thank you for the update Jo.

Wow Joe, that is some record for the Kadet. You keep us all inspired.
I am still enjoying the heck out of mine on my P-O1.
