It finally happened. I stopped by Sportsmans Warehouse in Goodyear AZ Saturday. As I was loading up the basket with reloading stuff I came upon the Chronographs. They had an F-1 Chronograph for $69 so I snatched it up. After tax and my military discount it came out to $72.
So I took it Sunday to the Buckeye shoot and ran my 10MM reloads thru it. The weather was 50's and sunny.
Heres what I got.
180gr Hornady XTP over 11.5 grains of Blue Dot in a Starline brass and Winchester primer. The lowest FPS was 1285 and high end was 1325. Ammo spent the night in the truck and it got cold enough to frost the windows.
200gr Speer TMJ over 13.5 grains of AA#9 in Starline brass and Winchester primers. (didnt have any CCI magnum primers) Low end was 1080 and high was 1120.
Platform was S&W 1006 with a 5" barrel. No signs of overpressure in any cases.
Fun stuff.
