chetc Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 i posted this over in the 9mm load area, maybe i might do better here, since the XDM has a short throat, can any reloaders here tell me which 147 can they load the longest, so far the SNS casting 147 fp is what i found i can load it to 1.140 oal, are there ay bullets i missed, i tried the Blue, acme, and the Bayou, the Bayou is the second i can load longest at 1.130, trying to find a bullet i can load at 1.150 in 147gr preferably a flat point type.

vixty Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Try xtreme copper plated bullets. I'm able to load their 165's at 1.155 in my cz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aandabooks Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I load S&S but I only load to 1.110". I could go longer in my gun but my son runs a Glock 34 and it has an even shorter throat. I have been able to go as long as 1.140" in my XDM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racingjoe27 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I know Rich @ Canyon Creek said the longest you can load in a 9mm XDM is 1.145-1.150 max. That being said, I dont know what bullet he uses so that doesnt help you much Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batmo Posted November 19, 2015 Share Posted November 19, 2015 You might try the 147 gr FP Missouri Bullet. I load it at 1.135 to 1.140 and have had very good luck with it in my XDM 5.25. A friend loads his a bit longer pushing the 1.150 mark but also has a Bar-Sto barrel in his XDM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
