Tripp feed lips hold cartridge nose down almost as long as GI hybrids. The benefit of riding higher is less dependence on feed ramp, giving cartridge a straighter shot to chamber. Second to height behind Cobra is Wilson ETM. Wilson ETM holds cartridge nose down a little longer than it's predecessor giving a little more nose control.Ĭobra Tripp magazines ride higher above mag catch than other magazines do. Magazines that hold a short oal cartridge down too long like a GI or Checkmate style hybrid will stick cartridge nose in feed ramp. We could explore theory more or simply refer to the old Speer "flying ash trays". Fill case with less dense powder or seat bullet deeper. Getting higher velocities require on of two things. It's a big case and a lot of smokeless powders don't fill case. Hybrid magazines such as Checkmate partially deal with today's cartridges but I've found shorter length self defense cartridges don't feed well through feed lips that hold the nose down too long.Ĥ7d was the first magazine to deal with shorter length cartridges. ![]() Magazine feed lips hold cartridge nose down until barrel hood takes control of nose to chamber. "Purest" like to relay legend while admitting ammunition has changed.ġ911 controlled feed is control of case rim during through feed and extraction cycle.
