Low bullet volumes for testing

[blkexp98]

Is there anywhere that will sell "test" lots of bullets so i can try some various bullets before i have to buy 1k or more to find out? I have a M&P 9 and have read through the threads talking about what it likes and doesn't like. Other than 125 gr and 147 its kind of hit and miss depending on YOUR barrel. I know i want to stay with jacketed and would really like sealed bases but can do without that. So that narrows things down a little but there are still too many options for me to pick from. Ive been known to have bad luck so i try not to push it when i don't have to.

So what do you think?

Were you using the .355, or, .356 Zero, 125 grain JHPs?

I've been using the .356, which is SUPPOSED to be for .38 Super, and so far, the only bullet Ive found that's more accurate in MY Pro is a Hornady XTP.

[G-ManBart]

Is there anywhere that will sell "test" lots of bullets so i can try some various bullets before i have to buy 1k or more to find out? I have a M&P 9 and have read through the threads talking about what it likes and doesn't like. Other than 125 gr and 147 its kind of hit and miss depending on YOUR barrel. I know i want to stay with jacketed and would really like sealed bases but can do without that. So that narrows things down a little but there are still too many options for me to pick from. Ive been known to have bad luck so i try not to push it when i don't have to.

So what do you think?

Major

Your best bet is to post a WTB in the classifieds and see if someone will sell you a 1-200. I've sent a number of folks 200 bullets this way since they easily fit in a USPS $5 flat-rate box....works nicely. R,

M&P Pro Zero JHP 125 P.P. 5.40 W/W W/W 1.055 1107 55 16 138.4

Were you using the .355, or, .356 Zero, 125 grain JHPs?

I've been using the .356, which is SUPPOSED to be for .38 Super, and so far, the only bullet Ive found that's more accurate in MY Pro is a Hornady XTP.

They were .355, my gun didn't like them and every gun is different.
