Default Time for phase 2....

I ordered some 9mm 158 grain SWCHPs last night. I decided to go with 158 gr so that I can have more complete load data with maximum loads listed for that weight. They are already HP, so I won't have to fool with modifying them, and they may be soft enough to expand.

I can't help but think that there is some untapped capability due to the construction of a semi vs a revolver, especially with the higher allowable pressure.


While I'm waiting I'm going to collect newspapers. I'll soak them and that will be a better media than the solid paper bundles I was using.
