People say funny things from D all the way to GM. 

Placebo and group-think is a heck of a drug.

I started shooting open with the 124 V1. It worked great but I never cared for the possibility of turbulence

 caused by both the hole in the nose and the slightly uneven nose resulting from the split nose. I can't claim any problem resulting but it seemed the split nose could hang up on the 2011 chamber entrance.

 

So I tried V2. It worked great also and loads better. I had to make a slight adjustment to the seating die to maintain my OAL. I shoot for 1.165-1.170. With the V1 I had to settle for 1.160-1.170. With the V2 I can hold the the original OAL pretty close. I can stay between 1.164- 1.170. I like the more even nose shape.

 

I can't detect any accuracy difference but I admit accuracy seems like a crazy issue with USPSA. It isn't bullseye, its shooting fast. My chrono results are the same.

 

I like v2.

I heard great things about precision Delta from one of my other RSO's, the other day i ordered some V2 for 9mm 124 gr. they will be shot out of all stock type pistols and a MP5 clone. What is a good powder and load for these pills?

 

[dtsdave]

3.9 Grains N320 1.125 ish depending on your barrels.  

Substitute lots of other powders. 

[Sinister4]

3.9 n320 1.115 V2  works great in my handguns and my MPX PCC   zero issues and always makes PF
