Pretty amazing results when you push these fast out of a full power 10mm load:

I figured someone here would enjoy this. :)

Nice, but from the looks of the primer, I think the load is too hot.

I mean that in a kind way, the performance is quite impressive. I'm sure it could be slowed down a little and still be awesome.

What was the alloy?
Maybe he needs some tin added to make it hold together more.

Someone sent it to him for testing. My guess is it's straight clip on wheel weights.

No worries I took your post as being helpful. :mrgreen:

I think part of the "hot" look in that primer swipe is a drag mark that his firing pin leaves in all spent brass, but I agree with you it's a very warm load.
