30 Cal Loads

Jeff in Cincinnati · 06-10-2003, 03:23 PM

I tried some 4.9 Unique loads with the XTP hollowpoint in an Interarms Parabellum. Functioned the gun fine, and the hollowpoint did feed OK after the first round, but getting the first round in a magazine to feed was less than fun. Accuracy wise it did very well at 25 yards, about 2 inches from a rest, 10 ring size group in a standard 25 yeard center. Pressure seemed mild - to the extent smooth brass, smooth rounded fired primers as well as cases landing five or six feet behind the line are any indication. I'm going to work with it some more.
