I am posting this as a reference. I am not suggesting that you use my load data.
I have chrono'ed 250 rounds of the following load. 11.2 gr of Alliant PP behind a 135-gr Sierra JHP. Yes, I said Eleven-point-two grains. This gives an average of 1530 fps. Only virgin new brass was used.
I have chrono'ed 60 rounds of the following load. 12.0 gr of APP behind a 135-gr Sierra JHP. Yes, I said twelve-point-zero grains. This gives an average of 1635 fps (800 ft. lbs. energy). Only virgin new brass was used.
All loads were fired from my Glock 35 with stock Glock barrel. I do use a 24-lb Wolff recoil spring. The 12.0 gr loads do produce mild Smilely Faces in the brass.
Again, I post this as a reference. Please DO NOT load according to MY data. These are extremely dangerous handloads.
