Mat Price Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 anyone tried berrys 124hp out of a comp gun running minor loads? I know they can't handle being pumped up to 9 major. I would be loading using hs-6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gng4life Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Yeah, I have. I used Berrys 100 and 124 in my 9 Open Shorty for some steel loads. Compared them to some MG 95gr, all using N320 and the accuracy was much better with the MGs. I have some better data at home but off the top of my head, I remember the accuracy was almost twice as good with MGs at 25 yards. At 15 yards and less, not too much of a difference. It's okay for practice and local stuff, I think, and when you compare the price of the MG 95 to the Barry 100, you can really save a lot with the Berrys. For example, 4500 MG 95 JHP bullets go for $367 and 4500 Berrys go for $265 plus shipping (should be about $16). If you are shooting a lot, that's a good savings - if you can make it work for you. Hope that helps... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eisenhow Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 gng4life if you dig up the data please post it. I'm building a poor man's open steel gun (FS M&P with a ported barrel). I was thinking of trying the 95gr MG bullet but was also wondering about the 100gr Berrys. The bullet cost was one factor but the ability to buy in smaller quantities was another.

MarkCO Posted April 19, 2011 Share Posted April 19, 2011 I've found the same thing in that the MG has half (or better) the group size as the Berry's with minor, both in the 9mm and .40 diameter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
