orangeman711 Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 124 Gr. MGJHP over 6.9Gr. WAC. STI Trubor, 171 PF. I've been shooting this load for 3yrs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naim Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 For shooting minor pf I liked the lighter 115gr but shooting major I preferred the heavier stuff. Since I shoot a lot of both I've been using 121gr which is kind of in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
klee Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 115 MG-CMJ for my 7 hole 9 major. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnySpreadsheet Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 115s for my 9 major shorty. I did a lot of Bill drills and El Prezs with both 125 and 115 Hornady HAPs loaded to same PF with HS6. The 115s gave me marginally higher hit factors. Mostly I noticed less vertical spread on Bill Drill when I really pushed my splits to the .15-.17 range.

Desmo412 Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 (edited) 115 MG-CMJ for my 7 hole 9 major. Have you done any accuracy testing comparing the 115 CMJs to 115 JHPs? I would imagine the CMJs are accurate enough for the game we play, but the JHPs held significantly tighter groups for me......plus they look so much more badass It's hard to tell in your picture, but I'm guessing you are running an Akai? maybe a Katana? What load are you using? Edited May 6, 2015 by Desmo412 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tagacali Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Go with 124gr. Just perfect for any powder Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RenoShooter Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Gotta say 124's. This was true even way back when the power factor was 175. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ctay Posted May 20, 2015 Share Posted May 20, 2015 115 MGJHP. I tried 124 MGJHP and the dot tracking was slightly less predictable for me and they cost more. 115's under 9.1gr HS6 makes my gun very flat and predictable so I don't mess with it. I mess with everything else when I want to screw myself up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gzo Posted May 21, 2015 Author Share Posted May 21, 2015 Seems like I need to try some other weight bullets . . . I've shot several thousand rounds of 115gr Xtreme plated round nose and like them. I was looking at Xtreme didn't know if the plating was good for Open velocities. I saw a guy this past weekend shoot a plated bullet in a 40 that the jacket pealed off before it hit the target . At least best we could tell, he had grease ring on 3 hits and a smaller non grease ring hit(hole) on 2 other hits in the same string Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
