9mm Open Steel Load - 1250 Max Velocity

[Joe Furrer]

I have an 5 inch open gun with a 5 port EGW comp and need a load that works the comp @ a max of 1250 FPS. Is there a bullet/powder combination that works in this scenario?

I load a 124gr Montana Gold CMJ with 6.5grs of AutoComp, CCI or Win primer,@1.16 OAL

I know they are very close to 1250fps. They work well in my XDM with a SJC comp.

I load a MG 115 over 4.7gr of N320. Runs at 1180 fps, very consistent and enough gas to make the comp work.

I load MG 124 HP, 6.8 Autocomp & Winchester small primer @ 1.155 in a Glock 17 Open w/ SJC comp. Makes a very consistent 1375 fps for a 170 PF and I can cover all shots with the palm of my hand at 15 yds.

As always, use anything with caution. Your results may vary

Autocomp would be great for steel loads because you could run the round at a lower velocity and get the desired gas you want to work the comp.

I'd use a 115 gr bullet.

All - thanks for the suggestions.

6.5 grains of AC @ 1.165 and a 124 JHP out of my trubore for steel
