I'm pretty excited to find out what my 40 S&W rounds are doing out of my XD 4", as well as my 357 rounds out of my 4" tracker. I've got plenty of ammo I want to test in both calibers, target loads and XTP's/Gold Dot's. I'm also curious as to what velocity my 40 S&W Rainier loads are pushing.
Rounds to be tested :
1) 155 grain Ranier with 6.5 grains of Unique (40 S&W)
2) 165 grain Rainier with 6 grains of Unique (40 S&W)
3) 155 grain XTP with 7.3 grains of Unique (40 S&W)
4) 155 grain Gold Dot with 7.5 grains of Unique (This one should be smokin)
5) 125 grain Remington JSP with 9.5 grains of Unique (357)
6) 158 grain Remington JSP with 16.6 grains of 296 (This one is a big boomer)
7) 158 grain Ranier with 7 grains of Unique (target load 357)
8) 158 grain Rainier in 38 spl with 4.5 grains of Unique, a +P load.
This should make for a great day tomorrow, of course I will record all of my results, which will help me tailor my loads.
I bought the basic F-1 chrony for $89.99 at Sportsmans Warehouse today, it got really good user reviews on Miday, so I figured "what the hell".
