I bought ANOTHER another 10mm pistol...

[The_Shadow]

Barnes Bullet data;
TAC-XP .400 125 GR Length 0.622"  Sectional Density .112 Ballistic Coefficient N/A Part #40003

TAC-XP .400 140 GR Length 0.682"  Sectional Density .125 Ballistic Coefficient .128 Part #40005

TAC-XP .400 155 GR Length 0.732"  Sectional Density .138 Ballistic Coefficient .189 Part #40006

These 100% copper bullets are longer despite their lighter weights than the lead core types...

I just came from Barnes website and seen the info and also found this in thevreloading section:

Greatly Appreciated

[jeffreybehr]

Nice shooting. Which load was that, or L to R was it HS-6, AA7 and Universal?

TY.

#23 is HS-6 as is #13; #28 is A7.

[jeffreybehr]

Congrats and nice shooting.

...

Powders on hand: Blue Dot, AA9 and Longshot, but I can pick some more if I will get better overall performance.

TY.

DOG, obviously you're welcome to use what you like, but if you'd be developing personal-defense rounds, I strongly recommend you use different powder than Blue Dot and Longshot, due to their high muzzle flash (MF).  I've personally tested Longshot and other powders, and I've read many comments by others that indicate Blue Dot produces high MF.  The problem, of course, is being temporarily blinded while shooting in the gloom.

The problem with A9 is that it's too bulky to achieve desired velocities with the looong 'XP155; I used A7.

Jeffrey have you tried any Alliant BE-86 powder, it is another Bullseye derivative and touted as being flash suppressed.

No, I have not tested BE-86.  I did that testing several years ago, was satisfied with the results, and didn't feel like buying more $20 bottles of powder just to know.  I might reshoot some powders with my WP10 after the weather cools, but that won't happen until October.         :'(

And thx, that info...

...looks promising.  Might be worth a $30 bottle just to try it.

Greatly appreciate the info. Shadow hooked my up with some info too.

I recently made a large purchase from Grafs. The BE-86 is $20 / lb in the pound quantity, but in 8 lbs it drops to ~ $17.22. Of course you still need to get a good buy on primers and powder to justify the hazmat.
