Knightrock Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 (edited) I have a new XDM .40 5.25. I'm looking for a load for Tite Group that gets me over the 125,000 PF floor, say in the low 130,000s. Any recommendations on the grain weight?. I'm using a 165 gr round nose flat point Ranier bullet. Edited September 16, 2012 by Knightrock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cy Soto Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 3.6gr over a 180gr MG bullet is what I load too for my wife's pistol. I tried using 165gr bullets but was unable to obtain good accuracy with these. I tried everything between 3.8gr (which btw didn't make pf) all the way up to 4.3gr but, since my best groups were around 5" to 6" at 20yds, I decided to go with 180gr bullets instead.

This is my ESP load except for the bullet, a 180gr CMJ. OAL = 1.115" The PF = 149000 and will run the Glock 35 and the STI Trojan without changing the springs. This was done because I use them in USPSA major. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
