Factory Ammo At The Chrono


Nemo

Recommended Posts

Ok people... My brother is bailing out of the Area 6 thus my 9mm production ammo won't be there. I'll shoot it with factory ammo, no problem. But what should it get to make 125+ at the chrono?

WallyPacks 115gr? 147's? UMC, CCI...?

My last batch of Blazers chrono'd at 135pf. Just perfect for Production. I've shot the WallyWorld 9mm's and they are quite a bit hotter than the Blazers, so I'd only use them if I were in a serious bind.

The only factory ammo I am aware of that is close to NOT making PF out of shorter barrels (under 4.25") is PMC/115 gr.

WW white box (wally world) 115 OK

Magtech OK 115 gr/124 gr (the 124 is VERY accurate)

Federal OK 115gr/147gr

Remington 115gr/147 gr

All of the above has been chronoed out of a box stock Hi-power and makes it 127-134 PF the PMC had below 125 (121-123 pf) about 50% from a box of 50.

Thanx a bunch guys! :) A trip to WallyWorld should get me by.

Fireant, I'll be shooting my G17 in an act of moral support to my boys. They'll be shooting limited with their 22's. So we'll be the Glocker Family!

See you there!

WallyWorld 115's always do the trick for me.

The older stuff, over 6 mo ago, always did 128-129pf

The "New Improved" actually chrono's a little higher, due to slightly heavier bullet weight, got into the 130's at Fla State two weeks ago.

Thats thru a Beretta EII

On Monday I tried the following through a Glock 34. I don't remember what the PF was (I'm at work, numbers at home). But, they all made the PF easily.

Winchester White Box

115 grain FMJ

124 grain FMJ

147 grain JHP

I hope this helps.

my glock 34 has a fast barrel, i get around 140 pf with the blazers and 145 with the win white box,.

its hard for me to believe that factory 9 wont make minor

the last load i tried was 4.0 grains titegroup and MG115 jhp.

it shot at 1145 fps.

3.3 titegroup and a berrys 147 made 995 fps...both loads shoot great.

the 147 grain load is cleaner however...
