    Precision Delta 9mm 124JHP

    I read a lot of good things about Precision Delta bullets and decided to try them out. I have a few different powders to try (Silhouette, Power Pistol, and True Blue) and loaded a few test rounds but only with Power Pistol. I am going to try and find a middle ground for the M&P9 and SP-01. Here are the test loads taken from Speer book.

    PD 124gr JHP
    COAL - 1.12
    Power Pistol
    5.6
    5.7
    5.8
    5.9

    This is just to test for accuracy and recoil/muzzle flip. I read a lot of somewhat negative information about PP (flashy and loud).

    The Speer book shows with a 124gr GDHP 1.12, min of 5.6 in the 1000+ FPS. My goal is to hit about 130ish PF. Does anyone load PD 124JHP? Does anyone know if the Speer 124GDHP bullet dimensions similar to PD 124JHP? Once I find an outdoor spot I will chrono these handloads.

    Use XTP data for these.

        I use PD 124JHP with 4.8gr WSF, I've only had them chrono'd once (at a match) 1080 fps if I recall out of g34 made PF easy.
        Very accurate too.

            Use truncated cone data with truncated cone bullets. They seat to a different oal than tangent ogjive bullets, meaning you should seat them short. They might not chamber very well at 1.120" in the CZ. They may hit the lands before the case is fully chambered.
