JC what loads did you make up..

 

maks did you make up the 124 gr 9mm for uspsa?

 

I am looking to try 8.0 gr #7 and 6.2 gr # 5 and i may be able to tone that down a little bit after chrono..

This weekend i will still be shooting the 115 FMJ over #5

Tony, I shoot 40 cal 180 gr tmn precision delta. For 9 I buy Montana gold jhp.

Er, damn auto correct. Tmn is fmj.

Any reason you don't go with the PD for 9mm?

The 230grain fmj are good shooters

Any reason you don't go with the PD for 9mm?

 

In quantities of 2k or less, PD is cheaper than MG. If you are ordering by the case, MG is cheaper.

 

Bullet quality wise, MG still, in my opinion makes a better bullet, especially since I prefer to shoot complete metal jacket, with no exposed lead base. So for 45 (230 grain cmj) and 9mm (124 gr jhp) I went with MG.

 

For 40 cal, Precision Delta worked out a tad cheaper for like 2k bullets, and used them. Followed up another order. The product, while not as pretty or consistent weight wise as MG, it is a terrific value for the price.

 

On the whole, MG bullets are much more consistent weight wise.

 

On the flip side, some folks are reporting QC issues with MG with all the extra demand.

For the 124 gr 9mm the price is about the same you would get 250 more bullets for an extra 8 bucks

 

The 45 230 gr FMJ was 60.00 cheaper per 2000

A lot of people don't like them but I like plated bullets if you aren't going to shoot them at high velocities. No exposed lead and they were a lot cheaper for awhile. They have come up in price though so it sometimes makes FMJ bullets an easier decision.

Thebulletworks.net has good prices on nice plated bullets.

I have a bunch of #2 and loaded the 115g 9mm with 3.8g and the 230g 45ACP with 5.2g.
