Does anybody have some nice target TiteGroup 10mm loads using some copper-plated bullets like Berry's, Rainiers, or West Coast bullets?

I'd like to try several weight bullets from 155, 165, and 180 to develop some target and plinking loads out of my Glock 20. Factory or lighter is my goal for this batch.

I have 1000 - 180 grain CHP (copper plated hollowpoints) from Berry's. I worked up a load up with 5.5 grain TG and the Berrys 180 but got some keyholing.

I'll check my OAL. What OAL are you using? 1.24? 1.25?

But I know the keyholding was from my reloads because some factory PMC 170s shot accurately for me.

I'm not ready for the hotter stuff yet.
Don't have my KKM 6" fully supported barrel yet.

Some of my dealers have heard of some keyholing problems with the G20.

I can get TG for $13.50 a one pounder and 1,000 Berry's bullets for $59 delivered. As you can see, it's an economoical way to practice with your 10mm.

Hodgdon really doesn't do a good job of listing other 10mm weights like 135, 155, and 165 on their website. They only list 180 and 200 grain load date for the 10mm.

Any good target loads using TiteGroup for a 10mm newbie?

No. Wrong 10mm powder. Try W231. OAL = 1.250"
