 Loaded Up Some Defense AmmoI loaded up the rest of the box of 124 grain Hornady XTP's I had, last night. I think there was about 75. I figured I would throw them in the Beretta for HD. 4.82 grains of Unique with a COL of 1.060". And yes, I hand weigh each charge for HD rounds.

my boys, one in t-ball and one in Farm. I played from 6 to 18. I still have the splinters to prove it. _________________ "Once you've been first class Air France, an accidental drone strike on children makes sense." ~Duncan Trussell "Americans love drugs.

Re: Loaded Up Some Defense Ammo I put a bunch of these through my LC9, 995, and PX4 with no problems at all. They seem to group pretty well too.

Re: Loaded Up Some Defense Ammo
Oh yes! I've shot about 200 rounds worth, I love it. For 147 grn JHP I'm using Unique, 4.7 grn and so far so good. I'm tempted to push it to 4.9 but I'm skeered. _________________ --

Yeah, thanks for those, Dustin. I'm probably going to order a case of those too - probably in 124 or 147 grain. |

Re: Loaded Up Some Defense Ammo I wish I could get motivated to load some of my own. A lot of little f***ing things that keep making it suck.
