Reeder Custom Guns - 38-40 WCF - More testing on a laid back Sunday..

Shot the GT Bullets for expansion today. The 180 grn at 1400 fps into a bucket of dirt at 25 yards. Accuracy remained great and expansion averaged around 3/4". No separation of bullets was encountered. I still think I prefer the 200 grn bullets. [image]

Commander to 45super. Running 185gr Nosler competition bullets to the mid 1200’s with out a compensator. I think that is about right for a commander. So far it’s cycles great and fun to shoot. Ever sense Gary and the Bear with the 45acp I have been rethinking my commander in 45acp. I know how well the Nosler competition bullets work on big hogs in my government 45super. I thought I would see how far I can get in the commander with out porting or a compensator. I got the right recoil spring and a guide rod set up dialed in today with what looks like the right load.

Using H110. Case life has been unlimited so far. I really like the 200s at around 1400 fps for my needs.
