That is very helpful! I've still got several packages of the store bought Great Value brand. Glad I don't have to just guess at how much more to add for my next batch.

Thanks for the replies 5pins and Schwartz. It's been interesting working with ordinance gelatin despite the hassle to get it 'just right'. I'll play around with the concentration with the cheap over...
After years of testing Clear Ballistics gel, I have recently taken the plunge into trying my hand at real 10% ordinance gel.
I've picked up some gelatin from Walmart (the great value brand) and...
I've only tested it in Clear Ballistics gel so far, but it expanded reliably and penetrated 12-13" through 4 layers of denim. Mild recoil in my J frame and POI/POA was good at 7 yards. I was pleased...
Full size guns get 125 +P JHP - Golden Saber, Gold Dot etc..
Snubby gets Federal Hydra Shok Deep +P
Thanks! EagleEyeGuns was one of the vendors I saw doing a google search, but I had never heard of them and didn't know if they were legit. Since you've had good luck with them, I'll give them a try.
Another follow up on the Ranger T 127 +P+... Is it available anywhere? At least from a reputable company? A google search lists a few places that have it in stock, but they're not online dealers that...
Thanks for the tip.
Sounds like it'll be a bit of trial and error with the 'store bought' brand gelatin. Well, it'll be fun to try! Does anyone have any particular store bought brands that have done...
I've done a bunch of clear ballistics testing for fun and to see how one round compares to another in the same medium.
If I were to dabble in the actual 10% gel ( I have a chronograph and a .177...
For sub compact guns I like the all copper loads from Corbon, Super Vel, Defiant Munitions and the like. If I couldn't find those I'd go with HST 124 +P.
I always stick with OEM for carry mags.
I have about half a dozen 10 round OEM G19 mags that I use regularly at the range for practice. I've been using them for 14 years to see how long they last....
I like the Federal Hydra Shok Deep load in a snubby. Seems to expand reliably and penetrate deep enough. Recoil isn't too bad, and it hits pretty close to POA in my J frame. My local store has it in...
I've got this for my PPK/S:

It works AIWB. It's got an open end at the muzzle, so I think it would allow the extra...
Pi Jr is running Defiant Munitions still based in SD. Pi Sr was working with Super Vel for a while but I believe he's no longer with them.
I run an ankle pouch from Lynx Defense: https://lynxdefense.com/medical/ankle-medical-kit/
I keep my fully loaded with TQ, gauze, gloves, chest seals, emergency blanket, and a seat belt cutter....
Yet another vote for the Galco ankle holsters. As has been previously mentioned the right holster choice makes all the difference.
I've been wearing a G26 daily for almost 15 years in the Galco...
So in the meantime there will be potentially millions of law abiding citizens turned into felons on Jan 1st in IL. Yikes. I was really hoping the SC would step in and smack down these anti's...
So now what? Is Illinois just SOL? Or is there more appeals to go through before the SC will look at this?
Glad to hear they're still making it!
Dark days indeed. I'll be paying off my credit card for a while... Fuck these traitors who run WA state.
The BPLE load is discontinued now correct?
I haven't seen any since Covid hit, and I've been hoarding my last few hundred rounds of it.
That's what I do, it's much more comfortable. It may sound weird, but I've found tucking my undershirt into my underwear helps prevent getting a handful of shirt when drawing.
Anybody seen one of these in their local stores yet? Actual price?
I was in at my local FFL yesterday. He stated that all braced pistols that have come into the store since the ruling has been announced have had to be treated as SBR's. Apparently FFL's are not...
This is an Italian made FS? I just ordered an Italian one from Omaha Outdoors. Guess I'll have to look it over carefully before accepting it when it arrives.
