Things are different in Canada, mmkay.

Guess I won't mention my 213 power factor .45 loads

You think these are hot rounds??? Recoil was less than factory ammo.

Yes, that's what they're for.

I would bump up the powder to 4.6-4.7 and go longer to 1.150. Should be zero increase in recoil but give you a bit more velocity.

Fixed.

Wow that is tight! :snicker: I only made dummy rounds up to 1.160, since my BHP started having trouble at that length. Not entirely sure how long I can go in the Sig.

Also, I am looking forward to chronoing some rather "healthy" loads w/ HS-6 powder. I think I should be able to see 1400fps without too much effort

Different OALs just to see what kind of PF I could get with various powder charges. The max length for my hipower is about 1.155, so I have to stay under that.

I use W-231 because I'm cheap and the recoil doesn't bother me. The recoil is probably only slightly more than N320 IMO.

Did ya hear about the constipated mathematician? He worked it out with a pencil.

Nah, shot through Maks' chrono yesterday.

AG's office said no-go. No reason was given.

More data is never a bad thing. Gun is a Sig P226 USPSA(4.4" barrel), weather was approx 60*. Shot strings were 15 rounds. W-231 powder, MG 115gr jhp bullets, CCI primers. 5.1gr @ 1.150 oal High: 1226fps Low: 1197fps Spread: 29 Average: 1213fps Power factor: 139.4 4.8gr @ 1.135 oal High: 1164fps Low: 1120fps Spread: 44 Average: 1137fps Power factor: 130.8 4.8gr @ 1.120 oal High: 1186fps Low: 1142fps Spread: 44 Average: 1186fps Power factor: 133.8

I have a lb of HS-6 too, and if you're anywhere below max, it will be diiiiiiiiirty. You should def switch to a different powder.

Whoa. That owl is badass.

My vote is for .22wmr, just because of how much flatter it shoots. I love love love this caliber, and used to shoot it @ 200yds pretty regularly. Keep in mind that for long range (150+ yds) you'll want to use better ammo in either weapon. I prefer Hornady V-Max for long-range .22wmr work.

I had no idea...

Well, I will never own a glock but as I have said before, I would fork over a $30,000 weapon if it meant keeping me or my family safe. The price of a weapon I use for SD is inconsequential to me.

Heh. Sweet.

Try the price request. http://njgunforums.com/forum/index.php?/contact/

So thrilled they finally found some girls who can shoot.

This is false. JHPs have the same transportation laws as handguns.
