9mm 115 grain RN Blue Bullets

[TFJ45]

So I've been working up a load for my Glock 17.5. Here's my latest load data. Looking for input if any one has any thoughts.

 

115gr RN Blue Bullets

5.9-6.0gr Alliant Power Pistol

#500 Primers CCI

Mixed Brass

 

OAL 1.10-1.105

Do they cycle your gun? 

 

With a plated rn, the max is 7.1 at 1.135, so min about 6.3gr. You'll get a little more pressure going shorter, but I'm not sure if that's enough to cycle. 

 

PP meters well and shoots well, it's just comically loud and flashy.

It's definitely enough to cycle my Glock. When I started I noticed some underpressure scorching on the cases around 5.2gr. Annnnd the flash is hard to miss. I have not shot this batch yet but I wanted to see if anyone felt this was out of spec at all. I've had a hard time finding load data for this combination of powder with these bullets.
