The Zero conical bullets are extremely good bullets I am running the the same springs brass primers and powder as you do only 8.9 3n38 with PF of 170.000 in my 4 port hybrid MCG gun. Shoots very flat with a modified Sprinco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powder: 9.0 gr VV3N38 OAL: 1.225-1.227" Velocity: 1,350 fps PF: 168.750 In the end, I will probably settled with 9.3-9.4 gr to stay at 172PF.
