Got out today with the 124 gr RMR MPR JHP bullet loaded in front of 4.0 gr Titegroup, CCI-500 primer in a Federal case. About 60 degrees, results:
Glock 48 average velocity 1,072 fps 5 shots
CZ P-09 average velocity 1,096 fps 5 shots
Same bullet, primer and case with 5.7 gr Power Pistol
Glock 48 average velocity 1,112 fps 5 shots
CZ P-09 average velocity 1,142 fps 5 shots
RMR 115 gr FMJ, 5.6 gr CFE-Pistol, S&B small pistol primer, Winchester case
Glock 48 average velocity 1,053 fps 5 shots
CZ P-09 average velocity 1,083 fps 5 shots
Kind of expected higher velocity with the lighter bullet and CFE-Pistol.
Winchester 115 gr JHP, 5.6 gr True Blue, Federal 100 primer, Winchester case
Glock 48 average velocity 1,025 fps 5 shots
CZ P-09 average velocity 1,035 fps 5 shots
Also a little disappointing, velocity wise. This was an old batch of bullets that I paid $40 for 1,000 (shows you just how old they are!)
My conclusion is that Power Pistol is probably the top pick for performance with the 9mm, although, I may need to push True Blue and CFE-Pistol to +P levels, just to see if there is a significant boost in performance. But I was surprised with Titegroup being as close to Power Pistol as it was, and is certainly more economical. I didn’t really shot for accuracy, since I was more interested in the velocity numbers. My P-09 seemed to like the loads better than the lighter, thinner Glock (it is new and I am still getting used to it).
Hope this helps.
