G43 9mm loads

[veudreaux]

Instead of blazing a path already "blazed".... Has anyone used 9mm reloads in the Glock 43 yet? I used some from my G17 mix, but I wasn't impressed.
If someone is in this situation, let me know what works for you.

powder, bullet weight, etc.

What about the reloads didn't impress you? Most short barrel 9mms work best with 125 grain ammunition (for self defense). 147 grain loads generally don't have enough velocity from a 3 inch barrel. Although the G43 is quoted to have a 3.5, the G17 has a 4.5 barrel. So you will get another 50-100 fps just from that.

After some more range time, and a slight rear sight adjustment, I will say that I am actually impressed.
124gr loads are working out now, and the 115r are as well (I prefer the 124gr.)
