New blue bullet

I use the 135s in my 929 and find them to be very accurate and consistent. Right now there is a Black Friday Discount of 15% is you enter bluesthebest at checkout.

Thanks for the reply. Have you bench tested them yet and got a group size at distance?

Anyone know how the profile is on this regarding oal? I the 125 and 147 blue bullets need to be loaded shorter than most.

I bought some of these. I haven't loaded them yet. The bullet length is .645" They push test, in my Shadow, at 1.155, the second longest bullet I've ever push tested. I'm going to do a load at 1.14 OAL. The insertion depth is .255". I'm hoping that these will let me use up some of the brass that won't work when I load the Blue 147's to 1.12.

Please let us know how it turns out. Hopefully these work good for us cz shooters. I wish I had a ransom rest to test these out. I'm worried about the .355 diameter as my gun seems to like the .356 better. Keep us updated sir. Thanks

Has anyone tried these in a stock (unreamed chamber) Tanfoglio?

I received a 135TC sample pack yesterday.  To pass the plunk test in my Stock 2 the 135's have to have an OAL of 1.1050.  This seems short considering the length of the bullet at .650.

 

I run these in my shadow at 1.140 OAL and they plunk test fine. Barrels not reamed either

Is your stock 2 reamed or factory 

Factory.  I can run Xtremes to 1.150 with ease so I don't see a need to have it reamed.  Have just been looking for a coated option as well.  If I switch to Blue's I'll go with the 125RN.
