Well, my G20 didn't blow up

[atblis]

Only 9.6 gr of 800x

That is why your gun didn't blow up!

I didn't have good results with 800x until I tried mag pistol primers.

I use CCI mag primers. Haven't gone much above 9.6 with the factory barrel. Have the Storm Lake barrel inbound and once I get it installed I'll start going North on the powder charges

I'd like a gently used G29 myself.

 

[atblis]

I quit at

about 1400fps out of a 4.25" barrel (backed down to 1350s for general reloads).

all of this talk about 10mm makes me want one. I would love to have a G29 for carry. That 10mm has some speed on it, don't it?

You may be able to snap a 6" KKM hunting barrel for a G29 too.

10mm has really developed some nice punch rounds delivering 550 FPE.

You can hunt with the round - really.

Duncan, aren't there 10mm loads that push 1000 fpe?

 

[Lennyjoe]

If there are I wouldnt want to shoot them out of a Glock factory barrel

The Storm Lake should be here mid week next. Looking forward to getting it in and starting some nuclear reloads.

Until then, I'll shoot up the rest of the Blue Dot loads I have left over.

Lenny: Storm Lake barrels are $89 @ Brownell's. Thought you might want that info for future reference.

 

[Lennyjoe]

The didn't have them for the G20. Trust me brother, I checked the web page and called them directly. Only way to get it is thru Storm Lake direct.

OTOH, MidwayUSA shows the Bar-Sto barrel at $179 but its 30 + days back order. I'm gonna order one of them too just to see which one is better.

 

[atblis]

It is a blast.

A 180gr at 1400fps is doable.
