Used RMR Bullets for my 16 inch carbine. 124 grain MPR
Ladder tested through a chronograph,
Powder I used was Titegroup, 3.4- 3.6 grains +/- .01 grain
Chronograph results at 1159 fps Average
Power pistol, 6.0 grains,
Chronograph results 1473 Fps FPS AVERAGE
Blue dot, 6.0 grains
Chronograph results 1281 FPS AVERAGE
Cfe Pistol 5.2 grains,
Chronograph results 1316 FPS AVERAGE
The factory load databases, I did expect a higher velocity than
was seeing at least a 200-400 FPS faster than bullet was constructed for.
I did some ballistics testing, found that bullet fragmented upon impact.
For my testing, used water in 5 gallon buckets laying on the side, bullet found that fragmented FPS was near 1500 FPS, gave it a try
Since then, I had fixed the velocity, through using a lighter charge, through RMR BULLETS website, found the velocity rating they were designed for, 9mm loading was all a new caliber to load for me, especially in a rifle carbine /PCC
haven’t tried shooting the 5 gallon bucket since to be able to recover BULLETS
Hopefully this may help a few of fellow shooters and reloaders
