    RMR 124 gr Nuke JHP

    I typically load and shoot a soft and very accurate 9MM round, which is an RMR 124 gr FMJ TC loaded over 3.9 gr N320 at 1.09 COL. I love this round as a fun range round that is very accurate (for me) in all my Glocks.

    But I decided I needed to build a round that would more closely match the recoil of my typical carry ammo. I bought and loaded some Hornady XTP’s and they shoot fine, but they are kinda pricey for the amount I wanted to load up, so I decided to give the RMR JHP a try. I am very happy with them.

    Very accurate and basically same POI as my carry ammo at 15 yards. I can’t really tell difference in recoil either, so I’m happy with the results. Loading this bullet over a near max load of 3N37 at 1.095 COL.

    I'm still hoping for some independent gel tests for this bullet.

    Wow. Those prices are much better than the Zero bullets that I usually buy. I wish they offered a 147gr JHP.

    Yeah. I've had to go all 147 for this SA-35 (Hi Power) I bought. It's miserable to shoot snappy 115s and 124s. I generally scoop up misc pull down bullet batches at Americanreloading.

    I might have to scoop some of these 124s to test. I'm still using 124's in my PPQ and Glock 19's, so it might be worth working up a load with them.
    What if this whole crusade's a charade?

    It's a lot better than Hornady 124 XTPs from our local Scheels too. There have been some rumours of 147s becoming available next year. I hope its true.

    147gr JHP's would be great. I hope they have rebated bases like the Zero 147's.

    Does that help them seat straighter??

    Yes. The stepped rebated base also eliminates the need to bell the case mouths. Consequently, it eliminates the need to taper crimp the finished cartridge.

    Nice all the way around. My belling is set a little lean as it is.
