One fine day, I was at the target end of an open 100 yd. range, putting up a few targets. Out of nowhere, bullets started impacting very near me! I jumped behind a berm, and watched to see if the shooter was going to cease. If anything, the hits were getting closer. I mean within 5 feet of me, so he was obviously not shooting at anything in his lane.
I was carrying my P-85, loaded with 8 gr. of Blue Dot and the 124 gr. XTP over a Rem benchrest rifle primer. He was in his van, shooting an AR on a bipod, but there was a concrete bench right in front of him. I laid a full 18 round mag into that bench. That load does make lotsa' bang and big fire, and those bullets were smacking the concrete with authority. He didn't assess my load, but made hasty tracks.
Big noise and flash is good. Accuracy is good. Not having to kill the moron is good. 9mm is good, but ONLY when you work your loads out to the potential of the round, in a gun that can handle it.
