Great bullets for shooting suppressed	October 29, 2017
Reviewer: Ken from PA United States

I love these heavyweights. I've pushed them pretty hard too and never had an issue.

To the reviewer who gave 2 stars: it really bothers me when someone gives a poor review that is undeserved. If your denting the bullets it's because you're doing something wrong, its not the fault of the bullet. Bell the case more and/or use a seating stem that fits the bullet better. With any plated bullet it's important to have a good fit, these especially.

Looks nice but it's very soft.	September 30, 2017
Reviewer: Iric Viscarra from Honolulu , HI United States

These bullets are nice and uniform but I was disappointed when i loaded it using my dillon 550 reloader..the tip of the bullet is always dented,i tried to load 20 rnds and the result is still the same.too bad I purchased 1500 rnds and I don't want to load these bullets anymore.

Great soft and quite load	March 17, 2017
Reviewer: David C. from Salt Lake City, UT United States

These bullets are very uniform. There is no 9mm round I enjoy shooting more than these over 3 grains of Titegroup. Due to the minimal recoil I am able to get back on target much faster than faster lighter bullets. Have had no reliability issues in my 4.5" XDM.

I do reload with mixed brass and some brass is thicker at the base which may cause a problem. I check all my loads with a chamber gauge, but I would at least recommend dropping any ones that required more force to seat in your barrel to make sure it chambers as the bullets are quite long.

Nice and soft	June 22, 2016
Reviewer: Ian S. from Palm Beach Gardens, FL United States

Been using the 165gr 9mm for the last 3-4 months. I load 3.0gr of Titegroup and make a 128PF from a Glock 34.

Low recoil round that is great for Steel Challenge, IDPA, USPSA and GSSF matches.

A 3 Gunners dream	February 17, 2016
Reviewer: J. Henderson from Glendale, AZ United States

These bullets shot awesome out of my M&P! I loaded them with 2.6gr of Titegroup at 1.175 OAL which produced 700fps. If you load these bullets to short, the case will swage the base of the bullet and reduce accuracy. Loading these to 1.175 OAL produced excellent accuracy and they feed flawlessly in my particular gun. This load creates a super soft shooting load that has no problems knocking down steel.

BUY THESE!!!	October 25, 2015
Reviewer: Anthony Coppola from Blackstone, VA United States

I have been using their 124gr & 147gr bullets trying to come up with a soft shooting load that will cycle all my guns. These bullets are just the ticket,not only are they the most consistent in weight & size I have seen, they shoot great & cycle all 3 9mms I shoot the most. The loads below were all put together with 3.0grs Titegroup, WSP primers,1.160 COL & a light taper crimp.

Kimber 1911 4in. barrel- 9 shots
HI Velocity 783
Lo Velocity 768
Extreme Spread 15

S&W M&P Core 5in. barrel- 10 shots
Hi Velocity 792
Lo Velocity 760
Extreme Spread 32

Stag Model 9 16in. barrel- 10 shots
Hi velocity 898
Lo Velocity 875
Extreme Spread 23

Velocity measured with Competition Electronics ProChrono 10ft. from muzzle.I also checked the brass for any press. signs by running them through my sizing die, & they resized easier then some of the hotter loads I run.

True Blue Loads	September 5, 2015
Reviewer: Steve Moore from Austin, TX United States

Tested these loaded to 1.15 OAL with Ramshot True Blue in a Walther PPQ navy.

Loads from 3.7g to 4.0g showed no serious pressure sign's, estimated FPS is 800 to 840 (not checked, extrapolated from 147g data)

~3.4g is expected to generate ~760FPS for 126PF, but as yet hasn't been trialled.

As these bullets are really tall, brass with an internal rim (ie. Freedom Munitions new 9mm) was avoided.

My Load data and impresstions.	July 17, 2015
Reviewer: Kenneth Conroy from Chicago, IL United States

The 165 gr bullet does produce an extremely light feeling recoil.

For my test I used a Glock 17 G4 with a stock barrel. My Crono is a Magnetospeed with the rail mount. I shot 10 round sets. your results may very.

The bullets where all set to 1.155 OAL +/- .001"
The Powder was TightGroup Bracketed 2.4 - 3.0 gr .2gr steps. charged with a RCBS competition pistol powder measure.
2.4 Data Inconclusive Did not Cycle Correctly
2.6 Avg 741, SD 5.5, PF 122
2.8 Avg 773, SD 8.1, PF 128
3.0 AVG 810, SD 9.3, PF 134

Last note. Case sealing at 2.6 gr was poor leaving the sides of the cases notably discolored. 3.0 gr sealed normally.

I have not run accuracy tests yet...

9mm 165 gr LOAD DATA	April 27, 2015
Reviewer: matthew

I shoot an M&P pro 9mm 5in. I loaded these 165gr bullets up with 2.7gr TG at 1.145 to make minor power factor. These are very soft shooting bullets.

Does what I want it to do.	April 4, 2015
Reviewer: ChrisK from Kenmore, WA United States

I've had 150 grain bullets that I've been pretty nervous with, do to the bullet seating deep in the case. These guys are large, but the ogive is back far enough where they aren't seating into the lands.
My 9mm AR (5" 1:10 barrel), can put these in a 2.5" groups of 10 @ 50 yards (Using Ramshot Silhoutte). In my pistol(Strike One), I can easily keep it in the black @ 25 yards. Slow, Heavy, Quiet and Accurate, it fit's all my needs.
