I initially made 5 rounds to function test just make sure they would cycle. They worked so I made up 50 and went back to the range. I stayed at 7 yards and the results were in my opinion less than great. I had one group that was about 2 inches and the other were 5-6 inches or more apart. Either I was going too fast or the load just isnt right for the gun. I was thinking of working up the load a little more to see if it tightens up. I also plan to go slower next time. I didnt see any signs of over pressure.
Any thoughts on the load?
I like everyone else am a bit constrained on my powder choice as I have limited pistol powder at the moment.
Sig P229r 9mm pretty much brand new, has less than 150 rounds through it.
124gr hornady xtp
7.0gr Blue Dot
Fed 100 primer.
I also had loaded up some frangible rounds to test and they were not that great either. They hit the steal target but failed to fully cycle the action. I will need to put more powder in the next load. I believe the max load is 4 grains so I will test 3.7 grains this weekend.
Anyone have any experience with 9mm frangible loads?
100gr sinterfire frangible
3.5 gr 700x
Fed 100 primer.
