45 GAP Minor Loads?


Religious Shooter

I don't have a chronograph, wish I did. But I have a G39 I have been playing with. I normally use titegroup for all handgun, 4.2-4.5gr with a 200gr plated round nose works well. If I get below 4.0gr the G39 won't cycle.

I picked up some Alliant promo because it was available and most aren't here last week. Using the same bullet 4.2-4.5gr also worked well. Both shoot very soft but haven't chronographed them yet.

I want to shoot my G37 in Production. Has anybody here worked up minor loads for 45 GAP?

Which bullet weight and powder combos will work on a semi-auto near the minor PF floor?

Thanks.

I shoot minor .45acp in a 21SF, 30SF, and 30S. I kind of doubt you're going to get it to function reliably near the minor PF floor. Up around 150PF, I suspect you won't have trouble...whether that's a 230gr bullet at 650-700fps or a 185gr bullet at 800fps.
