May I also get The Code? Thanks! Commo

I like the Vedder Cobra belt for casual, and I have a Bigfoot black leather belt with steel insert that is splendid and a bit more dressy.. Both are 1.5” belts and can be a tight fit in some belt loops. The Bigfoot is over .25” thick so you may want to double check that it’ll fit through your...

My presses are on a bench I built in my basement but I also have a brass cleaning/recapping station set up in my detached workshop, nice to keep the rattle of the vibratory cleaner outside.. Commo

I prime rifle rounds (270 & 7mm-08) with a Sinclair hand primer and pistol rounds (9mm, 10mm & 45ACP) on a Dillon 550.. You didn’t ask but I de-prime rifle on a Redding Big Boss II (during sizing step) and de-prime pistol on a little dedicated Lee press with de-priming die, as part of brass...

Old Dog, slight thread hijack...that leather OWB holster — is that for your P365 or perhaps your P938? Curious if you or others have found an OWB holster that’s perfect for the 365? As to leather, Sig is now selling the Mitch Rosen OWB that looks pretty nice, though I’d buy it from someone...

I have an email in to the coordinator (Viper Weapon Training) asking if Viper conducted the training independently or in cooperation with the government agencies..will be interested to see the response.. Commo

The first paragraph of the Forward on page 3 of the test does more than imply agency involvement -- it says "The 2016/17 Joint Agency Ballistic Test for Defensive Handgun Ammunition was conducted by several Federal, State and Local government agencies as well as security teams, contactors and...

Interesting take -- what do you think the motivation is if this is all a ruse? Commo

Oh, then meet in Chicago for some comparative shooting...oh...wait...hahahaha Commo

Found it: this is actually a statement on the last page of the test itself which states: "A 2019 test is being scheduled to include newer rounds." I'd like to be a fly on that particular wall when the testing takes place...if they need a volunteer photog/video guy (retired newspaper...

With a strong push by many influences to limit lead in shooting applications the copper effort is going to get a strong push that doesn't really hinge on the ballistics we're seeing...for better or worse we may be pushed to copper to get the lead out.. Commo

Yep, it's getting cold here in Michigan...I'm gearing up in my basement bullet works to churn out some ammo...are you in the middle of the (Michigan) mitt? Commo

In the report's summary of Solid Copper Projectiles they say of the Lehigh XD bullet: "This was by far the most impressive round tested. After over a year of testing this round became the most requested round to test after some of the agencies reviewed draft shot data." It will be interesting...

Same boat here...though I will probably buy a box of 50 bullets in both 9mm and 10mm and work up loads that chrono close to the Underwood offerings and chalk it up to R&D... Commo

Me too, need to order some copper bullets from Lehigh to load up, and will study speed recommendations for the 124 gr JHPs I load, as the study indicates that faster is not necessarily better... Commo

Understood..perhaps an LE member with access to the whole report can confirm that only names have been redacted? Viper mentions in passing somewhere on its website (but now I can’t find it) that a new test of 9mm has been done...sure would like to see any updates.. Commo

Easiest way to see these ‘screwdriver’ rounds is check out Underwood ammo’s XD rounds using Lehigh Defense solid copper bullets. Commo

Rather than hijack this thread I have created a thread about a LE Joint Agency study that addresses many of the issues discussed here, and more. It is at https://www.thehighroad.org/index.php?threads/joint-agency-ballistics-test-for-defensive-handgun-ammo.844285/ Commo

A thread in this forum asks what are the latest developments in defensive 9mm ammunition, and I thought I'd start a thread on a recent amazing study of not only 9mm but other calibers used by LE agencies. (Mods, I couldn't find any reference to this study through search on THR.) The study...

I really like both IMR 4451 and Ramshot Big Game for 140-grain AccuBonds and Sierra GameKing bullets. In my Sako 7-08 with 20.25” barrel they chrono around 2650 fps at the muzzle and are equally accurate.. Commo
