cg4880 Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 I currently shoot a lot of USPSA in limited 40 major. My load is 180 grn with titegroup and I'm looking to try out some new loads using 165 and 200 to see what I like the best. Gun is a 40 custom from predator tactical with an sti frame and briley barrel. Anybody have load data I can try out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdrr72 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 I have not shot this myself, but I recently loaded up 1k of rounds with 200g lead over 3.8g N320 for a friend. We chrono'd them at about 169pf from a G35. I cannot remember the barrel, but it was either a KKM, LW, or Storm Lake. He likes the load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RugerNo1 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 4.0 grains of N320 under a Bear Creek 200 LTC loaded to 1.185" makes about 170 PF for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When it's hotter out my PF drops with titegroup and I have gotten really close to 165 in a very uncomfortable way. At a previous Ohio Classic I was 165.3 but was shooting 170 with same load a week before when it was 20 cooler outAnybody got anything on 165grn?

blaster113 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Is your gun a 6"? My match load for my light 6" is 5.4 grains of N320 under a Zero 165 gr jhp at 1.180 oal in Remington 1X cases. The load makes a very consistent and nice feeling 170 pf. both at home (sea level, ridiculous humidity, usually in the 90s at my range) and at all the majors I've shot the gun in at Vegas, Utah and Arizona. At the various majors chrono was done both in the morning and in the afternoon. In Vegas I chronoed when it was probably close to a 100 degrees and the pf was still right near 170.

I have a 5" would my PF go up with the same load? I am definitely going to give this one a try! Thanks blaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russellhjoy Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) 5.3/.4 gr titegroup with 165plated or jacketed @1.210 should put you close to 170pf. Makes my gun too hot to use for practice but feels great with a 12lb spring If you wanna shoot 200s try wst at around 4.5 for plated, 4.2ish for moly coated. 1.210 OAL Edited January 28, 2014 by Russellhjoy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love WSF & WST over Titgroup, BUT they do lose vel when hot, the Titegroup seems harsh to me in either the 165 and 180 TMJ ( frontier ) and FMJs. I've been using CFE pistol for 9mm 115 and 124 TMJs seems nice as good as WSF and so far in testing had some 115 9s in the summer sun they got hot, but did not have a digital therm to see exact heat and the vel was the same as cool or normal. If I get to test with a 40 will give you the results, but I thinking that the 5.7 gr area will make 170 PF in a 5in with 180 TMJs and 5.8 area for the 180 FMJ.
