A few loads to share
Just recently I've jumped slowly into reloading, and finally got to test out some loads at the range. Sorry in advance for the lack of pics.
9mm- 124gr Magtech fmj, Magtech small pistol primer, Winchester brass, and 5.0 grains of HP-38 powder. I've noticed this powder seems very clean out of my G19 and USP45 Tac, and with both pistols very accurate out to 100y once I figured out the drop. With the G19 I was able to hit a 11''x6'' steel plate.
45ACP- 230gr Magtech fmj, Magtech large pistol primer, Winchester brass and 5.0 grains of HP-38. Again very clean and accurate so far with the USP. Clipped a clay pigeon at 100y, My dad and I were surprised at that.
5.56- 55gr Hornaday fmj, Remington small primer, Lake City 09-11 brass, 25.5 grains H-Varget, OAL 2.233 inches. At 100y with the S&WM&P15 and ACOG the rifle averaged.75moa-1moa. At 200y it opened up to near 3moa, I think was mostly due to wind. It's good enough for me, will do some testing with 68gr bthp's when I pick up some more.
Over all it was a great time with my dad, he brought his Uberti 1873 cattleman single action BP I bought him for Christmas. 60 rounds from each gun except the BP pistol.
