Shot the USP 45 again today, about 120 rounds. This gun is very accurate, and with some ammunition has 100% function. Unfortunately, with other ammunition it's more like 80%. It shoots to the same place - a bit above point of aim - with every load I've tried.

I am having problems with the backstrap. It is so aggressively stippled that after a hundred rounds without gloves my palm is getting abraded. May have to take some sandpaper to the plastic.

I am also still having problems with the new .45 Colt load I worked up for my New Vaquero. I get the feeling that only the primer is firing, since there's a muffled Pop and lots of unburned powder left over. I wonder if the powder in the can has gone bad.
