Fired my XTP 100gr, H110 12.6gr, CCI400 reloads out of my GP100. Used a moderate crimp to play it safe with the H110. We had a chronograph but couldn't get it to work for velocities over 1k fps. I ordered my own so I'll be able to start collecting data next time. No sticky extraction, the empties slipped out freely. They burned a little dirtier than 100gr AE's but not too bad. Included a pic of the primer end of the empties.
Also I trimmed the once fired brass back to 1.19" after resizing. Now the brass is shorter after it has been fired. They are all around 1.183". The resizing process must stretch the brass. I didn't use case lube with my carbide re-sizer. Think I'll use lube next time so as to put less stress on the cases. Also no more trimming!
