eboadway Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 3.1 grains of TG 147 extreme rn 1.145 Federal primers. 132 pf The gun doesn't move at all. I use this as well. Very soft shooting with minimal recoil, although TG is a pretty dirty powder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glockmeister Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I've seen some post here using 147gr bullet. I have a friend that tried to use one on his shadow but the bullet keeps tumbling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vixty Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 I shot my 165gr yesterday and at 25 yards they shot well and didn't tumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewtac Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 (edited) 160s at about 128 on the pf, I think they are 1.135, use federal and wst. Ocassional tumble, but I think it is due to loading screw ups as I've only seem it my practice rounds(which include my loading screw ups, like scraping the coating, or other issues).

mrgrabow Posted May 14, 2015 Share Posted May 14, 2015 Seems like most folks are NOT shooting 115's (at least those who replied to this thread). Curious why.... I'm looking to develop a flat shooting load for my youngster to use in "his" new SP01... I've got Titegroup on hand at the moment... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
