I would like to develop a load for my full auto MAC10.
The gun is a full size MAC but chambered in 9mm with an UZI mag well. Any special loading considerations for an open bolt?
I’m planning to load some of what I believe is Hornady’s discontinued #35597 which is a 147 FMJ encapsulated boat tale.
I have some blue dot in my inventory. This is the only powder I have on hand that I have 9mm data for.
Per the Hornady 7th Edition book it shows loads from 4.2 grains up to 5.7 for Blue Dot. Looking to load around 5.4 grains which should give around 950 fps.
Does this sound reasonable? I’m just working with what I have on hand for now for a trial run.
Thanks,
Dan
