OK finally shot both mix and matches with no malfs. I used mostly Herters brass case 115 gr FMJ made by S&B for Cabelas, so multiple new variables. Stuff shoots good. I also sent a magazine's worth of Rem 115 gr HP downrange. Blinded by the light! Definitely fire coming out of the compact barrel with that load.
All in 20 minutes:
59 rounds through the compact longslide.
113 rounds through the semi compact
36 rounds of .40 through the 96A1
Most notable were perhaps my tightest left hand, one handed groups ever with both setups @ 10 yds. And maybe the best for that session! It likely had to do with slowing down and aiming between shots LOL. Overall, I'm most happy with the Semi Compact. The smidgeon of felt slide resistance in the Long Slide remains.
I envision the PCR having a significant CC role, followed by the Semi Compact. If I want to carrry the full size slide, it will likely be with its original Matte Stainless Frame. I'm a DA first shot kind of carrier.
