wyomingballer Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Just started with 9mm major. I have ordered some of the Everglades JHP v2's and like them, but I am wondering if the competition style is better. Any thought? Or other manufactures to look at?

jcc7x7 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Precision Delta is worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I've been using MG for years, but just got 1,000 each of PD and RMR's - fired a few of each yesterday and they both seem to be okay - the PD's seem a little more accurate in my TruBor, but I need more work with both of them.

Gooldylocks Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Use the EGA JHP V2s. They are the best choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcazes Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Holy shit it takes 7.9 grains to make power factor for 9 major?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I load north of 8.5 of HS6 for a 124 to make a load that feels great with my set up. 7.4 of WAC is what I use for my main load. 10 minutes ago, Gooldylocks said: Use the EGA JHP V2s.

Acsr Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 I use them they are on par with Montana gold such I like also, but at a little cheaper price they are good bullets, but the v2 seem to get out out stock to often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigbob21 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 PD’s didn’t feed well in my gun...The 124 jhp v2s from Everglades work awesome for me...Montana’s of course do too but are a couple cents more...Just got an email about the v2s coming back into stock...Still got some 115s to test (I bought while their 124s were out) before I order another bulk order...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I wanted to like the PD 124 JHPs too, but my open gun didn't like feeding them either. I've gone thru several cases of MG CMJ 124. Can't get a better feeding bullet than the FMJ profile. When this case gets low, I'm definitely going to try the EGA 124. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please tell us the results of the testing. That is all I shoot, and they are legit. I only shoot 115s, regardless of manufacturer. Load them with lots of slow powder.

Thanks, I would say it depends on your gun and barrel. If you can load long to fit your mag, and have a short chamber leade, the V2 will allow a longer maximum OAL than the conical type JHP will. My CK for example requires a 1.145" max OAL when loading a 115gr Hornady HAP, but I can get out to 1.180" loading the JHP V2.

I have loaded the EGA 124 v2's to 1.17. with no issues so far.I have a box of 115 XTPs I loaded but did not plunk test in the barrel.Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Not being a wise guy, just wondering - from their website, it seems like the EGA's are 30% more money than PD's ? Are they that good? or am I missing a discount ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
