Title: 1095 with 180gr xtp's and a gel block
Post by: Pctechdude on March 16 2019 07:51:14 AM MDT
Took the 1095 out yesterday to sight in and chronograph some loads out of it. My test was using 180gr xtp's and 9.5 grains of longshot. New starline brass and CCI Large pistol primers.
44° f Marion ohio
1560 fps
1560 fps
1572 fps
1587 fps
1553 fps

My sight in was only at 25 yards due to sloppy muddy conditions, but produced a very good group.

With these velocities, especially the 1587 thats over 1000 ft/lbs of muzzle energy.

The hornady box says velocity ranger of 700-1500fps. I've never seen a XTP fail or come apart, but yup, these took a beating through the gel block.
Retained weight of all pieces found was 143.7 grains.

The performance of the 180 gr XTP from a carbine into gelatin is very interesting. Do you have any data on how a 200 gr XTP would perform from a carbine?
