i was looking in to reloading some carry ammo
chronograph some 165 gr hydra-shocks avg. Velocity 1220fps
avg. 5 shoot group 2" at 15 yards
reload#1
180 gr hornady xtp hollow point
federal no.100 small pistol primers
4.7 gr of universal avg. Velocity 930fps
avg.5 shoot group 4" at 15 yards sucks cant hit nothing better off
throwing the bullet
reload#2
180 gr hornady xtp hollow point
federal no.100 small pistol primers
8.5 gr of bluedot avg. Velocity 1100fps
avg.5 shoot group 1.5" at 15 yards
hydra-shocks vs ballistic gelatin
Penetration 11 1/2" opened up to .655 stayed together
reload#1 universal vs ballistic gelatin
Penetration 13" opened up to .651 stayed together
reload#2
bluedot vs ballistic gelatin
Penetration 15 1/2" opened up to .710 stayed together
the hornady xtp is the only hollow points my dealer had in at the time
when i get my order their will be more testing i order some
155 gr speer gold dot, 155 gr hornady xtp,135 gr nosler Hollow ponts
what i found out today
reloads are as good manufactured ammo
universal powder sucks using 180 gr xtp
8.5 gr of bluedot and 180 gr bullet shows some high Pressure Signs
and kicks like a b**** in my xd40
will post pics soon
