    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
