I'm trying to load some 180 grain Xtreme plated bullets to major. My friend has been using 4.1 grains of Bullseye with 180 grain moly coated lead and getting 170 PF. We both shoot Glock 35s and are both loading to 1.13 OAL. I tried 4.1 grains and was only getting 809 FPS. I loaded to 4.5 and got to 887 then to 4.7 to get to 902. I haven't seen any flattened primers yet but it looks like these Xtreme bullets are acting way more like jacketed bullets than lead which I was assuming I should load them like.
I'm shooting a gen 4 If that makes a difference.
What I would like is some advice on my situation, can I safely get this load to major, does anyone have any experience with this combination? I just don't want to blow this gun up, or me either.
