[QUOTE="Nimrodmar10, post: 1846844, member: 36369"] I loaded the Nosler 120 gr. Ballistic Tip and Hornady 95 gr. V-Max bullets with Reloder 15 and Varget. Both bullets and powders did a decent job in the pistol. The best load with the Nosler 120 gr. BT was 37.6 gr. Varget with a Federal 210M Primer in Hornady Brass seated to 2.710" COAL. The load produced an average velocity of 2323 fps. The SD wasn't that great at 20.5 fps, but it grouped less than 1 inch at 100 yards. 37.8 gr. of Reloder 15 produced 2263 fps and grouped almost as good. The best load for the Hornady 95 gr. V-Max was 40.3 gr. of Varget with a Federal 210M Primer with a COAL of 2.615". The SD on this load was great at 5.9 fps and an extreme spread of 15 fps. Accuracy was less than one inch. The Reloder 15 loads were about the same velocity but ES and SD was quite a bit worse. None of the test loads were max, but not far from it. The Varget loads produced quite a big fire ball. Reloder 15 loads showed some fire but manageable. The barrel only had a thread protector. I couldn't use the suppressor with the Magnetospeed. The short barrel was inside the window of my shooting house and the three port muzzle brake I had was waaaaay too loud to use. I'll shoot the next loads outside with the suppressor and LabRadar with the microphone. That should be a better test of the accuracy of the loads. Stand by for more results [/QUOTE]
