  1. Hmmm.....that's a really long wait. I belong at RTSP but I really like outdoor shooting. Maybe I should fill out the application and drive to PA and cherry ridge for the next couple years while I wait.

     

    I like Cherry Ridge but it looks like the ranges are rented out every weekend this summer which sucks for me.

     

    The fee look steep at Shongum but if it's nice I wouldn't mind paying them at all. However, that's not happening in the near term as you point out.


  2. I just saw another post you made where you gave your recipe with the VV powders and the xtreme bullets. According to the load data I have 4.0 grains is the starting load for FMJ where as the plated bullets is 3.8 with the high end being 4.2 grains. My concern is that the starting grains for the W231 is 4.2 grains for FMJ and no load data listed for copper plated. I will probably order some VV N320 before using the bullets. Thank you for the information.


  3. 124 grain bullet at 1.09 OAL and 3.2 grains of 231. Shot very light and very accurate at 10 and 20 yards definitely a nice light load for static steel, knock down well i just don't know. So out of about 80 rounds that i shot i think i had 5 stove pipes... Overall i can't complain. I was loving it.

     

    What type of bullets (brand, coating, shape)?

     

    I have some xtreme copper plated bullets in 124 gr and can't find load data with w231.


  4. I was looking through the various recipes for something for my two 9mm pistols (Glock 34 G4, Barretta 92FS). I am 124gr rn bullets but the book shows most discontinued from manufacture and also doesn't list any recipes using W231. What gives? What's the best place to find a proper load, the powder website?

     

    Cheers


  5. What kind of caliber is the powder good for gonna start reloading .45 acp soon also where are you at might be intrested in the primers if they are good for .45 also

     

    W231 is good for .45. You can google it and it will tell you which calipers its good for.
