Inceptor round workup

[gadabout]

Shot some more Incepter today in the Taurus G2 and it ran as good a the first time I shot them. Ran some in the Kahr CM9 and all shot a little high. can fix with aim but I think it needed a different reload.  Also shot the Ruger MKIIII 22 and it shoots great and I like the red dot site that came with it. Weather is nice but I got poison oak the other day out but we have mowed out there since and it is not as bad.  Craig

Interesting enough I have found some older incepters I had loaded a year ago or so. They are the same bullet loaded to 7.5g Power Pistol. This would seem like a heavy load but remember the bullet is only 65g and I would have tested these but will test again. At leased it's another fifty I didn't know I had.  Craig

That's cool Make good use of them Craig...

Here is an update for you. I just got off the phone with Incepter and they are no longer packaging the ARX or any product for reloaders. They are making them for Rugar and will sell their own bullets but no longer packaging for reloading. Bums me out. I will have to find another defense bullets that shoots that good. OH well at leased I have about 100 to tide me over.  Craig

I didn't se them being that popular as a handloaders choice.  But the way things are going we may see a big attack on the handloading and commercial ammo by the as backwards democratic governments over time.  If Trump doesn't get reelected our freedoms will likely diminish altogether...

Absolutely, stock up on reloading components while you can 😀

Well shot a few incepters this morning in the new p38. The bullets didn't like the gun and the gun didn't like the bullets. Some broke in two and jammed the gun. The ones that did shoot were fine and I will need to check theses out as they may be loaded too long in the case for this gun.  Craig

Craig be careful you maybe over crimping those composite bullets

[gadabout]

Using a dedicated taper crimp die and not over crimping. I think I loaded long ah let me check. OK just measured and most I checked were at 1.155 or so and that is where they are supposed to be. I did find one at 1.17 but that is to close to be a real problem and remember they ran great in both Taurus guns I have shot these in. I feel the new p38 is just picky enough to not run these easily but who knows.  Craig

Shot some today and at a different COL they seem to feed better and the company rounds did well so if I change the powder I may go a little more as that seems to be what it likes. I can max out at 5.7 as I am doing well at 5.5.  Craig

[gadabout]

Well it appears I didn't shoot the 5.5 universal rounds but shot some other rounds possibly 7.5 Power Pistol but my point is I measured the 5.5 and they are at 1.17 and have shot the best in the Taurus guns. If your confused about this you are not alone!!I was thinking shorter COL was better but I do know the 5.5 uni. rounds do shoot the best compared to anything else. I will do more work but remember I can't even buy these bullets to reload more. Craig
