Looking for something to load!!

Came across some blue bullets that are for 9mm 135g. I remember getting these and the bag was open but don't remember anything else about shooting them. I just loaded about 63 at 5.3 power pistol and we will see how it does.  Craig

I guess I can continue on with this thread as it's for 10mm short, OK 40 cal. Doing the 135g blue I was thinking I also bought some 200g blue by mistake as I really wanted 180g but did test them and they were OK for 40 cal although a little more powerful than I would shoot on a regular basis. Will try more of those as I have 40 cal in the tumbler. I loaded at 5.3 power pistol and may go to 5.1 but will give it some thought as the blue bullets don't need power to work good. This was Nosler data. Just don't want to go to light.  Craig

Hey Craig, what is the book max power charge listed at for that weight bullet?

Boy it's like 5.8 and this is Nosler data. I like their site as it gives a "most accurate" round as well as starting and max.

[Kenk]

Gota love that!

it's funny because most of their data with Power Pistol ends up where I have been for like 15 years with their most accurate rounds. Craig

In discovering blue bullets yesterday I found a small box of the 125g JHP I have had for a long time. Possible they are Berry's double plated but not sure but I will load some up like 200 or so. It's a nice JHP, old school if I may be so bold. I have shot these over the years and they shoot great.  Craig

I got 100 done and have a few left like 50 or so need more brass but have it. It will be nice to see it gone and will shoot it soon. Craig

All done!! Like 175 total and it's raining like crazy of course so can't test them. Looking for something else to load. These maybe a Remington JHP can't remember but it's the copper coated with hollow point exposed but a smaller hole unlike gold dot's. Nice bullet and I did do two different lots of them. One a little hotter than the other. Craig

Craig are the Remington Golden Sabers, do they have angular nose cuts?

[gadabout]

Hey I have bought golden sabors in the past and these might be them but I don't know about angular cuts I do think they are more factory made  than Berry's/  Craig

[gadabout]

Did a post but lost it. These are not golden sabor as they are not gold at all but a reddish copper color.  Craig

[Kenk]

Hey Craig, I started looking through my stash and found some GS .45ACP + P from 2013 that might help you reference them better

Ken

[gadabout]

Yeah they are not Remington for sure. More of a reddish copper material. I may take a picture if I can.  Craig

Well I hope this turns out.
