[QUOTE="crkckr, post: 2832233, member: 78056"] I fear that the Sig V Crown 165 gr bullet will be like all the other 165's I've tried - designed to work at 40 Short & Weak velocities but they simply come apart at 10mm velocities. I've had the same happen with some 180 gr bullets as well, even some that are bonded! I believe the same is probably true of the Gold Dots but then, since Speer has decided to poop all over us reloaders, I may never find out! I won't buy their ammo because, like a lot of factory stuff these days, it's velocities are down right sad! I'm not sure what is going on but it seems to happening to everyone in the industry except Underwoid and Buffalo Bore. I think you could also include Double Tap and Defiant Munitions, who actually load 10mm up to real 10mm velocities, not stuff watered down to some other caliber! At this point in time I'm glad I'm a reloader because at least I can control what my velocities are... unfortunately, I have not been able to duplicate any of Underwood's velocities loading the Lehigh Xtreme Defender bullets. So I load them up as hot as I can manage while keeping pressures at a semi-reasonable level but I carry the factory loaded ammo. Now if I were a rich man I'd get.... well, forget that, I'm far from rich so no use dreaming! Like most of us, I just do what I can with what I've got! Cheers, crkckr [/QUOTE]
