VV N320 9mm load recipes

[Haalck]

I’m looking for loading recipes for N320 and coated 9mm Bullets of different weights(125, 135 & 147). What grains are you using and what velocities are you getting. Using 4 grains over a 125 gr Rn Blue bullet I’m averaging 1096 fps (137pf) out of a 5” 2011.

If go onto the search bar and type in what your looking for you will get a ton of info

My favorite is a Zero 147 grain JHP over 3.5 grains of N320 to 1.125".

For 135 coated I have tested 3.6gr for about 130pf. With 147 coated about 3.2-3.3gr for 130-135pf

3.9 N320 with a 125 coated bullet gave me an average of 1020fps in a Stock 2

G34- 1.15, 3.4 N320, 147 blue .355
2011- 1.16, 3.6 N320, 147 blue .355
Both are doing me great with the reduced slide weight(s) and 10-11lb spring. Though the Glock is 'pickier' on lock up. @130pf.

Interesting that I was about to inquire about a recipe for 125gr TC Blue Bullets using VV N320..  So the consensus is 3.9gr of powder for  N320?  I'm using a 4 inch barrel, Shadow Systems XR920 and Glock 45, also a Canik Rival~  

 

Thanks~

Looking for something for a 115 rn jacketed zero.  I’ve always done 4.2gr.

 

Anyone care to share?

Did test the N320 loads using 3.8gr, with the Canik Rival, it was making 130PF, but with the shorter barrel, Shadow Systems XR920 it was giving me 124PF...  So yes, barrel length makes a difference.  I'm going to load 3.9gr and test further but I do believe that 3.9gr is the ticket with 125gr TC BBL's~

I had this same experience when going from my CZ Sp01 to the Walther q5 SF.

The 130pf loads I loaded for my CZ were chronoing  on average about 3-4pf higher when shot through the Q5SF.
