stuey93 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Hey guys getting ready to place a large order with Freedom to get some .40 for my TSO. What do these like to eat in 180? HP, FP, RN, doesn’t matter? Just don’t want to be stuck with a bunch of ammo my gun doesn’t like. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darqusoull13 Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 Buy 100 of each, chrono and get a feel for what you actually like through your gun. You don't want to get stuck with a bunch of ammo either you or your gun don't like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mcfoto Posted December 18, 2017 Share Posted December 18, 2017 I don't mean to be a butt-in-ski because I believe the nature of your question is to see if they'll run in your CZ (and I'm an XDm guy -which they run great) but there was a discussion a bit ago about how the .40 165 are spec'ed at EXACTLY 165 power factor so folks who run freedom at major matches with a chrono stage get the 180 to ensure they'll make major. I'll echo Darqusoull13, I'd get a small lot of each and do some testing of your own. FM stuff runs great in my XDm's in 9 and .40 but their .38 sp is no bueno in my Smith revolver. I tend to buy the new stuff too. A couple cents a round is cheap peace of mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayDee Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I've run several thousand Freedom RNFP 180's through my TS. PF is around 172 in my gun. One of my friends shoots the 165's and they did in fact chrono slow in his pistol, so great for practice, not good for major matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spencerattix Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I had a batch of freedom 180s that were pretty hot. PF 185 at Michigan last year out of a 5.25" barrel. I guess they can vary quite a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least your gun didn't blow up. https://www.google.com/search?q=freedom+munitions+kaboom&oq=freedom+munitions+kaboom Edited January 30, 2018 by 858 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cody6477 Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 I ran 180 RNFP in my TS without a problem until I started rolling my own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
