bubbasks Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 Well I picked up my new Kimber Eclipse Custom II 10mm on thursday.Figured ide make 400 rounds of a "warm load" to break it in. Well 100 rnds of ppu 180gr to start. 1080fps and ran like a clock. One round nosedived in the mag but only malfunction. Then got onto my reloads. Fired a few, checked pressure signs. Well these do look warm but not bad. Pit em on the chrono and heres what they did. 165gr plated. Pretty happy with the results. More than "warm" gun loved em and easily now my favorite pistol. The 9mm has its work cut out to become favorite in a month.
NTXshooter Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 Beautiful pistol there. Those Kimbers are NICE.
98Z5V Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 Right on, Bubba - that damn thing is NICE!
sketch Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 (edited) 1410! Is that warm or hot? My old and new speer books barley cross 1300? Gotta love the 10mm!ahh shits i read to fast more than warm ! Edited August 23, 2015 by sketch
bubbasks Posted August 23, 2015 Author Report Posted August 23, 2015 Lol they were supposed to be warm. Didnt turn out that way. Atleast i have a good mix from the get go. Not changin a thing. SD was under 10fps. Accurate but started developing a flinch. Gotta work though it. Gun is more accurate than i am with a pistol. 15 yards all in x ring minus one flier in the 9. Gotta put more through it
