Is there a good/easy way to tune the ejector on a 1911?  Shorten it a little?  Basically, I (and a buddy) want to stop chasing brass that's thrown 20 feet away.  Reduced loads and heavier springs are helping a little bit.  

How the hell do the professional (Rob Leatham) get their brass to eject neatly at their feet?

Well, ejectors are cheap.  I'd get a couple surplus ones and go to town.  Grind off a little at a time and see what happens.  Preserve your stock part just in case.

I don't know the finer points of ejector tuning but as cheap as parts are, it would seem to be an inexpensive experiment.
