Good morning.
Some boolit do better on some weapons than others?
After playing around with the load and OAL a bit, I find that the RCBS 124 cn on most of my pistols is much more accurate.
A couple of years ago I started reloading my 9mm with the Lee 120 TC, never got it to work, keyholes were frequent so I let it go.
I got a used RCBS 124 cn at a good price, I didn't have much expectation with the TC designs.
Then I bought a 135 grain Miha RNFP 6 banger, a rain of boolits. Very fast to have 6 cavities.
Testing both designs, I see that the RCBS is MUCH more accurate.
At 10 meters with support on my Tanfoglio stock 2, the group is an inch or an inch and a half. While the groups made with the MP mold start at two and a half inches at the same distance.
I started to modify the OAL and the powder charge, to see if I can improve the results with the MP.
If I don't improve with the MP, I'm going to try to get another RCBS and make boolits with two molds.
If Miha made a design similar to RCBS, it would be the best of both worlds.
Have you had a similar experience?
