For what its worth, Im new to PCC and am shooting a MBX Pro Series with the 14" barrel and comp.I shoot for Orr Tactical Custom Guns and Ammunition. We worked up a PCC load based on felt recoil.We shot our standard 115 pistol ammo and were at 1297 fps w/ 147PF. We worked up a 100 grainer at 1310fps w/ 131 PF.While the 115's feel good , the 100 grainers feel a little more " carbine " like BUT with very little dot movement. Oh, Im running the Green recoil spring in my buffer system. As stated above.....it's more about personal preference on felt recoil.
