Nghthwk1911 Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I tried HS6 with 124gr Bayou, the result was a very dirty optic after 3 rounds, so dirty in fact that I could not see the target through the glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRobson Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 HS-6 and a 115 is the best 9 major load i've felt so far. With a PD 115 i'm at 9.0gr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoBell Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I've used both Bayou and Blue 124's with HS6,and I really like how they shoot. However, the optic does get pretty dirty. They're accurate and easy to shoot, even at 175 pf. I have not tried any 115's to compare, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 9 gr HS-6 and a 115 is the best 9 major load I agree, but stopped using them because the HS6 is dirty and so little room in the case that reloading is tough and not lots of room for the bullet. So, I went with the 124 gr bullet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 HS6 with 124gr Bayou, the result was a very dirty optic after 3 rounds I used to get Very Dirty Optics also, but since I switched from gun oil to Brian's red lubricant (slide glide), no more dirty optics.
