I have sited original sources on the subject (in black and white). So far, you haven't sited anything, though you claim that there is a source. We are not arguing. I'm trying to set the record straight regarding the myth of the "hot load" requirement. I have sited my sources, please site yours.

"It is for that reason that I am not going any further as I respect Ed Tinker as he has made his feeling known already regarding this thread and the direction it is heading."

When faced with facts, no argument exists for the "hot load" theory. If there are facts to the contrary, I'd be perfectly willing to read them and discuss them with anyone.

"What I said is correct and factual as it is in black and white as I indicated previously."

I have asked for a site of your 1,400 fps 124 gr German load. You have not responded in "black and white" or otherwise. I think a reference to any of the modern widely published Reloading Guides will clearly show you that it is not possible to load a 124 gr. bullet, to 1,400 fps, in a 9mm Parabellum case, at any safe pressure level. In fact, it would be EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO DO SO!

"Good luck and the best in your Luger collecting."

I have collected and shot Lugers for the last 30 years. It has been a very enjoyable and interesting hobby for me. Thank you for your best wishes!!
