mr alexander, Yes, I do check the round with a Wilson case length gauge. If it doe not go through it will not cycle in the Pardini. Rounds that do not cycle in the Pardini will have no problem in the CZ75B or the browning Hi power or for that matter any Glock. Even when I shoot 45ACP the Pardini wil...

Mr.Alexander and all others who want to know, Before going on vacation I ordered an undersized 9mm carbide sizing die from EGW. I also borowed a 9mm Lee factory crimp die from a friend. To cut a long story short, it does not eliminate bulge but alleviates it somewhat. If the casing was fired from a ...

Thank you one and all. I am going on vacation. On my return I shall try some of the suggestions and will post results.

Thank you again.

I have been experiencing problem with the GT 9-6 only when I was firing my reloads. I found out it was because some of the brass I picked up at the range came from guns that did not have a supported chamber. Does anyone know how to get rid of the bulge at the bottom of the case. I have been unable t...

How does it proform at 75 feet?

For the 45ACP,5.1 gr of W231 worked fine with the 185 gr XTP AT 25yds. The load had to be increased to 5.4 gr for 50yds as you suggested.

I tried 5.1 gr W231 with Hornady XTP JHP 185gr with C.O.A.L 1.20 and .469 crimp. Had fantastic results. Only made 10 bullets. Under 1" at 25 . Thank you one and all. The GT45-6 is a great gun. I can not do this with any of my other guns.

Thanks Jim,

Currently I am at 4.9 with OAL 1.20 and .469 crimp with 185gr XTP. Will up it to 5.1 as you suggested. 231 is a dirty powder but at the moment I don't have much choice.

Thanks Jim for the info. Powder situation is tight around here. I found some W231 so I am limited to experimenting with that. Thanks again.

Thanks. My XTPs should be fine then.

Thank you sobakavitch. Appreciate the information. Will try A.O.L 1.205 . I was using the same amount of crimp. Will use 4.9 grain of W 231 and go from there. Will order some Zero 185 . In the mean time I will try the XTP 185 grains that I have.

Can anyone tell me load data for Pardini GT 45-6 also GT 9-6. Also what is the best C.O.A.L I have found Hornady XTP 185grain works well With the GT 45. Any suggestions on bullet type, powder e.t.c will be most appreciated. Powder availability around here (NJ) is spotty. Found some W 231 which I pro...
