Finally got some .40 165grs Sierras coming

After reading wvhitman's post about the 165 Sierra I was going to try them last year but there were none to be found.I have some on the way just in time to hunt with the 24. The 180XTP worked fine but anxious to see how the 165 Sierra performs.

How is your Glock 24 set-up?

I've been getting .40 165 gr. Sierra JHC lately from Graf and Sons. Don't buy them all. I'm still using them.
They were the only .40 bullet I got reliable one shot kills (most of the time) on deer.

lol. I won't get them all.

Now all aftermarket. still breaking in the frame. It's settling down. I can stick it on the 22 frame and drive tacks. There is virtually no slop on this frame. Cant wait to hunt with it.

WOW!

Please post some loading info. [165 Sierra] I haven't started loading for the 10MM yet.

I'll check my sierra manual when I get home. I am loading these in a .40 with 7.8 grs Longshot.

Nice setup! I've experimented with a lot of warmer .40 loads from a 6" KKM G24 .40 S&W. I've had 165 Sierras and thought I had more load data for them, but most of it is with Gold Dots, which probably won't help much as I'm pretty sure the Sierra 165 is longer than the 165 Gold Dot.
