    i just loaded a bunch of 124gr JHP (MRP Nuke) with 4.0gr of Titegroup.. I was wondering what fps that would be.. ( i don’t have a chronograph yet) but on the website it says it needs 1100fps to reliably open up to full width… anyone have real world data? from 4″ barrel or 6″ barrel..

    While I haven’t chronographed your exact load, I have run the 124 gr MPHP (pre nuke) out of a new Glock 48 with 3.6 gr of Titegroup and S&B SPP. They clocked an average of 949 fps with a Sd of 10.
    According to Glock, my barrel is 4.17” long. I suspect a 4.0 gr load would top 1,000 fps, but probably under 1,100. I should try 4.0 just to see what it would do, already have 3 primer tubes full of CCI-500 primers ready and waiting on the Dillon RL-550B.

    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.
