Observation on Parabellum ammo

Hi Some-Finn:

I've reloaded the 9mm Parabellum for some 29 years and I concur with your general observations.

For high velocity, pinpoint accuracy and perfect function I've found nothing better than SR4756 and Power Pistol in the 9mm pistols.

Personally, I've never found Blue Dot all that accurate, especially in my LP-08s. Shooting Blue Dot, at night, is like firing off a flare pistol, if you want to have some real fun.

Unique has never given me anything but so-so accuracy and a filthy chamber and pistol, though it would make the pistol function properly.

For accuracy and perfect function, I'd stay with the medium to slow burning powders in the 9mm.

Your thoughts?
