Re: Handloads for Sig Rattler
That’s not a bad idea, I might give the 220 ELDs a try and see how that works. I’m also considering getting started on a super load, see what I can do with a nice expanding bullet and still keep the blast to a minimum. I don’t know, I’m just experimenting at this point haha

Re: Handloads for Sig Rattler
Alright, so I’m thinking that N110 with 220’s out of the Rattler is a bust. Might work out of other systems like the PDX, or with a different can with more back pressure, but I’m not having luck with the Sig/OSS combo. I backed the bullets out to about 2.255, if I go too much further I’ll be having ...

Re: Handloads for Sig Rattler
Awesome, I’ll give that a shot next weekend.
I’m using an OSS, so while there is *some* added back pressure, it’s not nearly the amount that most cans would induce.

Re: Handloads for Sig Rattler
Yeah, the H110 load a couple pages back runs perfectly, I was just trying to get N110 to work because it does seem a bit quieter and takes a smaller charge. I’m wondering if I should try 200gr bullets with the N110.

Re: Handloads for Sig Rattler
Sure thing, current data for the N110 load is as follows: Bullet: Sierra 220gr HPBT Matchking Case: Converted Lake City (Fancy Brass Co.) Powder: N110 Charge: 9.8gr Primer: Winchester Small Rifle COAL: 2.24” Avg Velocity: 1054 Cycles reliably with/without suppressor, does not lock back either way.

Re: Handloads for Sig Rattler
So I backed the bullets out to 2.245 or so, and weirdly enough I still saw no notable difference. Velocity was still right around 1050, still had reliable ejection, but still could not lock back. Would you think it advisable to back it out even further?

Re: Handloads for Sig Rattler
Happy to help! Remember all the data I’ve posted is based on a 5.5” barrel, but you should at least have a solid starting point to work from. Good luck!

Re: Handloads for Sig Rattler
Hey folks, been a minute. I FINALLY got a chance to work up a load with N110 and test it. I used the same brass, primers, and bullets as my H110 load, but I used 9.8gr of N110 and seated to a COAL of 2.21. You guys were totally right about N110, it’s completely hearing safe, not nearly as blasty as...
