I've reduced my charge to 5.2gr and will get updated PF info soon. Also, the paticular batch of 200SWCs Dad's shooting only weigh about 198grs. No complaints about Prescion at all, has been a good bullet so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricW Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 If you just feel like directing your shooting dollars to people because they're nice, you won't go wrong sending it to Montana Gold. Just got off the phone with them this afternoon. It'd be tough to ask for better customer service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevin c Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 Zero 180 FP'sWon some Montana Gold bullets - itching to try the 180 HP's And I'm a convert! Love the 180 JHP MG's for my 40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.40AET Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 I lucked out. Most guys shooting 40's were using MG 180g FMJ's when I started reloading, the local range had them, so I bought what everyone suggested. I used 5.6g VV N330 last year and switched to 5.0g VV N320 this year. CCI 400 primers. Next winter I plan to test the 180g CMJ from MG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoNsTeR Posted March 13, 2004 Share Posted March 13, 2004 Been happy with Berry's, 147 RN for 9mm minor and 200 RS or SWC for .45 major. Playing with some Bear Creek bullets right now, pretty pleased so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shred Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 121 or 125gr Hornady HAP for Super. They're XTP-accurate and at $45/K drop-shipped in bulk, an excellent deal. I've also used tons of Montana Gold (almost as good in JHP form) and Star FMJ (a little spotty sometimes, but usually good), but our local source for those dried up so we started a group-buying club.

gjtalia Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 I am partial to the 200g LSWC Lasercast bullets over 5.0g of VV-N320. Leaves the barrel fairly clean and shoots nice groups with my Wilson Combat CQB with 5" barrel. - George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpspeed Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 I like the MG's for just about everything. I have used the Nosler handgun bullets in the past as well with excellent results but at a higher cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bucky Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 Montana Golds. Reason, they sponsoered the Area 8 Factory Gun Championship where I was MD. Because of this, I tried them and because they are VERY accurate I continue to use them. Their 147 grain flat points are tack drivers(!!), and they cut nice holes for a 9mm.
