imknadian Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 (edited) What do you guys use for an overall length for your Tactical Sports .40 cal loads when loaded with 180gr bullets. I just picked up a TS and have some .40 cal loads that I loaded for my Glock G35. I loaded with 4.7gr of Tightgroup and they were making major in my G35. Just wanted to know if I have to change the overall length at all. I have it set at 1.125". These are plated bullets I'm using.

noypi916 Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I'm running the same length with my TS (1.125 - 1.13") with N320 at 4.8gr, 168 PF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenR Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 I run 1.135 without any problems. Yours should work just fine. Have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bubbadoc Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Good length as the others said. Don't err on the long side as mine gets picky quickly... (found out the hard way by taking rounds I had loaded long for my STI as the only ammo one day to the range...quick trip) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stavros Posted January 20, 2011 Share Posted January 20, 2011 (edited) Anything past 1.130 = unrealiable feeding. I've done 1.140 by mistake and had some misfeeds I tried my buddies ike 1.180 (for an SVI) and to quote my baby "WTF? FTF". 1.125 is my oal. i have a glock 35 too, scary patterns in gun owners. i am sure groups of people all have the same guns.

Walküre Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 1.130" OAL also has proved to be the most reliable for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
