RickT Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I put together an upper with a Wiland barrel and Taccom extreme bolt/3-stage buffer. I can run a load softer than will work in my 9mm 1911 steel challenge gun. The guys at Wiland indicated they had seen velocities down near 700 fps, but I don't know the bolt/buffer combination. I can say that my setup (115gr Acme, 3.0SP, 1.11") is very, very soft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zzt Posted January 25, 2020 Author Share Posted January 25, 2020 Wiland's load is a 125gr Summers Enterprises poly coated bullet over 2.8gr 231. He says it feels like shooting a rimfire. Since my PCC has not arrived yet, I'm working up loads using my XD 4" and my 1911 Open gun. So far the 115 @ 950 feels best in the XD, but will not cycle the 1911. A 124 @ 1000 works in both. It barely dribbles out of the 1911, and is slightly harsh in the XD. I'm currently rebarreling the 1911 Open gun for use without a comp. Ideally, I'd like to use the same ammo in both.
