rootacres Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 Hello everyone, I am using 147 gr SNS coated bullets with federal primers out of my stock 2. Does anyone know how much TG I will need to make minor? Or does anyone have any velocity data? thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haiedras Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 3.2 grains at 1.100 OAL got me about 135pf with 147gr coated bullets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtturn Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 3.2 sounds about right Sent from my MotoG3 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TravisNC Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 3.1 or 3.2 should get you there, depending on actual bullet weight and what your gun prefers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just got a stock 2, have a lot of 147 sns truncated cone bullets that I would like to use up. Any info/experience (feed reliability, accuracy, load recipe) with using that bullet with that gun would be of great interest. With a brand new gun yesterday I had two or three ftf issues running what my CZ's like (1.15 oal, 3.2 titegroup). May just be a brand new tight gun thing but not comforting.

Was it not feeding well due to feed ramp or not able to chamber completely? The odds of the oal of the rounds being to long is high since tanfo barrel are inconsistent. Most likely need to load shorter or have barrel reamed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely need to load shorter or have barrel reamed. Barrel has been reamed and ammo plunck tests well, but I am thinking that you may be correct on loading shorter. Had hoped the issue was due to a new gun with a sharp 90 on the slide where it contacts the round (and drags against the round below the one that is being chambered). Put a bevel where the sharp 90 was dos possibly that will help. When you hit the mag release or assist the slide with a bump of your hand, the round chambers.
