RV man Posted September 13, 2008 Share Posted September 13, 2008 I received my new 9mm TRU BOR from Thunder Mountain today. Fresh out of the box, it ran everything from WWB to 1500fps loads without a hiccup. The best surprise was the spare mags I bought from them. They were polished at no extra charge and looked great and ran perfect. The load I am using now is: 124 gr Montana Gold CMJ Winchester small rifle primers 7.3 gr True Blue 1.65 oal mixed brass This gave me 1375 fps and seems to be a good starting place. Thanks Mike for taking care of me on this purchase. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi-Power Jack Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 That OAL can't be 1.65", can it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Merricks Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Sure it can, I've even loaded mine longer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hi-Power Jack Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 Probably 1.165"? Anyway, I bought a TruBor nine months ago, and I LOVE it - good luck with it - mine has been great. If you don't have the extended ejector, have one put in or you'll have brass stuck in the ejection port every once in a while (Only when you really don't need it)) Good luck with it.

RV man Posted September 16, 2008 Author Share Posted September 16, 2008 I type as well as I shoot!!! Yes, the oal is 1.165. I ran another 100 rounds last night and this thing just eats up ammo. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
