6.6 gr N340 Unknown 1.258" CCI LP guest For Anyone needing info on reloading Remington Golden Sabers, here you go. Powder used was 6.6 of Vihtavuori N340. 6.6 works best for me in my 1911s any higher caused loss of accuracy and any lower gave the same results. surprisingly accurate .230gr JHP for a HP, almost match grade accuracy. The Bullets used were the Bonded version of golden sabers *BJHP* as they are rumored to do the best for the job they are intended for.

6.0 gr Bullseye Unknown CCI SP guest This is a moderately hot but VERY accurate load in a Ruger P90. The bullet is copper plated not lead but about the same hardness. Suggested starting load is 5.0 grains of Bullseye with Federal case. DO NOT substitute other components or LFP primers/bullets/powders!! Seated so the shoulder just shows with a moderate taper-crimp. 1" groups at 50 feet bench rest Email author: kirbydoc See all of kirbydoc's loads 6.0 gr Bullseye Unknown CCI LP guest This is an extremely accurate loading. I used Berrys preferred PLATED bullets not jacketed with a moderately gentle tapercrimp. Ragged 3/4" hole at 25 feet 2-handed braced. A little hot if you are in timed or rapid-fire competition, you might need TMJ practice to re-acquire target.

It averaged 705 to 710 fps. I have fired 100s of rounds on the indoor Combat range at St. Joseph (Missouri) Total Range using both Rainiers jacketed flatnose and hollowpoint 200-grain bullet. 3.5grains resulted in 100% function in my Glock 30, but the empties seemed to fall between me and the pistol. With 3.6 grains, ejection was adequately forceful. As for the primers, the only large pistol primers at my dealers were the Winchester Magnum Large Pistol primers and that is what I worked the load up with. I have found that I need to keep the firing pin clean as well as the slide where the firing pin rides and where it penetrates to the primer. Negelect here caused misfires due to striking residue and softening the blow to the primer.

Since it was well within SAAMI specs for pressure, I tried it in an HK USP 45 and is a great load for bowling pin shoots. Pressure is rated at 20,100. I use Sierra 240 grain JHC bullets. 9.0 gr Blue Dot 825 fps 1.240" CCI 300 Admin From the Speer #12 manual for the 45 Auto Rim but also works in the 45 ACP.
