H&k .45 And Precision Bullets...ok?


Full Size

Recommended Posts

Sorry if this is redundant. I could not find HK specific info here. Anyway.......

I recently began shooting 230gr Precision Bullets in my USP .45

www.precisionbullets.com say these coated bullets are safe, cause no fouling or leading. Knowing that lead bullets should not be shot through HK's I was told last night by numerous people at the range that Precision Bullets are bad for HK's. Anyone have experience with these bullets or suggestions about using them with HK pistols? I am currently shooting these with 3.8 grains Clays, 1.200 OAL. Anything longer than that would not seat in my pistol. They shoot great. Very accurate but I don't want to destroy my barrel. Any help is appreciated.

you can't easily destroy an HK barrel.. hammer cold forged ...blah blah....

The only thing I noticed out of my HK USP 9mm, is that is does not like plated bullets, I got a lot of keyhole/ tumbling. The only exception are the frontier. I usually use montana gold....

You can shoot lead out of it, but the polygonal barrel tends to foul moreso with lead, which can cause more pressure.
