My current load work up for my new Open Glock17


Adrenaline

Recommended Posts

I am using Hs6 and Berrys 124gr plated round nose. 

 

So far I have made batches of 15 to 20 starting at..

 

6.8, 6.9, 7.0, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6.

 

Today I am going to continue batches up to 8.2.

 

These are all loaded to 1.155 for the most part there are a couple inconsistencies with the projectiles so some are up to 1.600.

 

Does it sound like I am on the right track.

 

Will be using kkm barrel and Carver 4 port comp, I have wolff 13, 14, and 15 lb springs.

 

Thanks.

Hello: I think you will find that you will have to load to 1.140"-1.145" OAL to get the best feeding. You are going to be in the 8.0-8.5 grain range but chrono to see what you get with your barrel. I still think you will need a lighter recoil spring so try the 13lb to make sure you get the pistol to cycle. You may also want to try the Berry's 135 grain bullet and less powder. Thanks, Eric

Okay thanks I was wondering about that.  I did all my work ups with berry's plated 124gr not thinking about the whole plated thing so I ordered 3000 124 gr cmj projectiles from Everglades.

 

I did however finish at 7.8 he of hs6 so when my parts arrive I will start with the 6.8 load and go up from there since I've already shot 6.6. Loaded to 1.1550.
