Yes sir I did. I tried all kinds in .355 to .357 in weight ranges from 110 grains to 147 grains and never found anything I thought was acceptable. Some were better than others but none of them were great.
I tried dozens of different load combinations and I never could get it to shoot. As much as I liked to look and feel of the DVC I just couldn't get an acceptable level of accuracy so I moved it on down the road.
I'm shooting 4.5 grains of WSF and a 110gr Winchester JHP .357 diameter bullet. They are absolute tack drivers and very soft shooting. They have a cannelure because it's a revolver bullet but just ignore it.
I'm running 4.5 grains of WSF and 110 grain winchester JHP. It's a very mild load and shows no pressure signs. I'm going to try them in a JP GMR-13 next and see how they work in that.
I had a couple of thousand 110 grain JHPs left over from my revolver days and I tried them in a couple of 9mm 1911s today and they shot fantastic! Had anyone else tried 357 bullets in a 9mm?
Well it sounds like the DOH would work great for the plate matches since they have no holster rules and I can take off the hanger to shoot Single Stack. My next question is how is the Tek-Lok hanger? Have any of you used them?
I just bought a JP GMR-13 that is 16" with a comp. I have a ton of Blue Bullets and would like to use them. Does anyone have any problems running coated bullets in their PPCs with comps?
Has anyone used this holster? Thoughts??

I sold my open gun and I'm going to concentrate on single stack. What holster is everyone using? I need to get something bought soon, I'm just not sure what the best option is.
I just loaded up some 125 grain .355 blue bullets, some 125 grain .356 lead, 145 grain .356 lead and the only .357 Dia bullets I have are 110 grain XTPs. Don't know if they would be trying or not. Going to the range this afternoon.
Yes sir, the gun is fit extremely well. Slide to frame it is excellent and the barrel locks up like a vault. It almost seems like it has an over sized bore or something goofy. I'm going to try some different bullets this weekend and see if things straighten out. The only flaw on the gun is a pin sized hole in the grip safety. I'm not going to lie I'm on the OCD side and it's not a big deal but I wish it wasn't there. If this gun shot 2 or three inches at 25 yards I would be happy but so far it's not even close.
My problem is my Pm9 shot right around 2 inches at 25 yards from the bags on the same day with the same ammo. I can shoot better groups free hand unsupported from my 4" Les Baer Stinger then what I shot with the DVC off the bench. I hope with some load development things get much better. If not I'll be sending it back.
I'm going to try some 125 grain blue bullets this weekend. Hopefully they shoot much better. It is a limited gun so there is no optic and I checked to make sure the sights aren't loose. It may have a oversized bore. The gun locks up vault tight and the slide to frame fit is excellent so hopefully I can get it to shoot.
