I usually crimp between .420" and .422" and never had any issues.

10mm semi-auto handguns / Re: Polymer80 PF45 frame kits

Havent found a hoster for it.  Just use it at the range.  It is hearing safe with handloaded 220 subsonics.  Not as quiet as a 9mm or 22 but still nice.  Wet suppressor is even better.

I have built 2 of them.  Shoot them all the time.  I love them.  I put them together for about $700-800 all in each.  Got threaded alpha wolf barrels and put a swampfox rmr on one.  I shoot it supressed most of the time but have put heavy loads through it also.  I went with a 22lbs spring.  Only issue i ran into was a 2-3 round burst issue but a new connector fixed that.  The round count is somewhere around 3000-4000 right now. Let me know if you have any questions.

I would have expected higher velocity than that with such a light Bullet. Of course the solid copper bullets do eat up case capacity though.

The Shadow's results are more in line with what I would expect.

I would like to know where you found those projectiles though.

Yeah I plan on upping the velocity a bit.  This was just the first load I tried and was surprised by the gel results.  I'm hoping to get closer to what shadow got maybe in the 1375-1400fps range and around 16-18" of penetration.  I should be able to since there were no signs of overpressure with this load.  I got them off a guy on gunbroker.  He pulls them. I got 250 for around $85.

Reloading 10mm ammo / Barnes 140g Copper HP
April 15 2021 11:28:13 AM MDT
Just received and loaded up some of these black Barnes CHP with some BE-86 and figured I would post some of my results.  I used 7.4grains of BE seated to 1.255" crimped to .415" and shot 2 into a gel block at 8ft.  The result was 13-14" of penetration with the attached expansion through 8 layers of cotton T-shirt material.  The recoil was minimal and I got an average velocity of around 1273fps.  Figured I would report in case others are interested.

check with Montana bullet works.  They make some great Wide Nose hardcast bullets that are 200 grains.  Another place to get some decent target loads that are coated is ibejiheads.

Pro.  I have them on all my guns and they are great.  The only issue I have run into is that the coating is coming off on my g29.  It may just be because I shoot it a lot but it is definitely coming off in several places.  Talon sent me a free replacement though so I'm very happy.  I have it on 4 other guns and the only one with issues is my g29 which is my CCW so it justs heavy use.

Gunsmithing / Re: Glock 20 ejecting magazines
October 05 2020 11:01:44 PM MDT
I had the same issue with every magazine that came with my G29.  I put some duct tape on the side of the magazine that the magazine release button is on and that fixed it.  So if you have it on the left like it came from the factory then try putting tape on the left side of the magazine with the round count numbers facing you and vice versa.  You will have to experiment with the thickness to get it right.

Reloading 10mm ammo / Re: favorite 200 fn lead load
September 26 2020 12:46:21 PM MDT
I have been loading the 200 MBW LBT and NOE WFN bullets with 7.8gr of BE-86 and I am getting around 1220fps out of my 5.5inch Kriss vector.  Shoots great out of my Glock G29 as well.  Not sure about the muzzle velocity out of it though.
