Re: Winter vs summer velocity

Okay, thanks for the replies. So do any of you have ES and SD numbers with powders other than little gun and 110 gr V-Max? I'm just trying to get an idea of what to shoot for. And at what point in the ES and SD numbers is it getting dangerous? The worst numbers I've gotten so far have been with the ...

I would be interested in the bullets if you're willing to separate?

Re: Quick load for Lil Gun and 220 grain

That's really odd that your sub load was slower in the longer barrel. I have 8.9 gr lil gun out of the 9" barrel running at 1018 fps and 1064 fps out of the 12.5", so I'll probably just chronograph some and start with 8.7 gr and work down. I just hate trying to pull the plated bullets beca...

Quick load for Lil Gun and 220 grain

If someone out there has access to quick load, could you figure out a load for me?
I'm using a 12.5" pistol gas 300 blk barrel.
I have 220 grain plated bullets and will be using lil gun to load.
I'd like to get right around 980 fps if possible.
Any help would be great!
Thanks!

When developing loads do you...

When developing sub loads do you get to the desired velocity first and then try
to get better ES and SD numbers with seating depth or vise versa?
And also, what are the benefits to using magnum primers as opposed to non magnums?
This forum has sooo much knowledge my head hurts sometimes :mrgreen:
