Some XTPs I rolled up this weekend

[Bovice]

Here's what I came up with-

.40 S&W 180 gr XTP, 5.4 gr Universal, OAL 1.128. New R-P cases, CCI small pistol primer. I don't have the numbers on it yet but all seems good so far.

Thems look purty.

For wht it is worth

I load the 180 XTP's with 5.0 W231 @ 1.120.
They chrono at 925 FPS out of my Xd 40.
Hornady advertises 950 FPS with their loaded 180 XTP's, so i am happy

I'm expecting mid 900s as well. The factory loaded ones have been real accurate for me, and that's what I have tried to duplicate.

Why are these special? Are they your first reloads, or just your finest yet?
