Good load for shooting in Lugers.

For those of us with older WW1 or numbers matching lugers who may want to shoot once and a while, I've found a good load to do so if you are not a hand loader.

original DWM specs specified a 123 grain bullet going at 1,020 FPS. This is a 124 grain bullet going 1,030 FPS. It is reduced from standard 124 grain loads to remain subsonic for suppresser use. Also as a benefit to use because of this, it burns cleaner facilitating an easier clean up.
