Excellent subsonic bullet	December 1, 2023
Reviewer: Lifetime Reloader from Vermont, United States

The 165g are getting popular so I decided to try them. Reloading data is hard to come by so working up loads from information provided from others seems to work. I started with 3g of titegroup powder and used a radar chrono which is very accurate using an HK MP5 with a silencer as a test platform. Average velocity was 910fps which was perfect using a silencer. Very impressed how quiet they were compared to 147g. Interestingly the velocity was very consistent with a deviation of only plus or minus 10fps using this load. I found some other loads using 3.1g of CFE Pistol and 2.3g of Win 244. That was pretty much it. I have not tried the other powders and will stick with the Titegroup. I also examined the primers (Federal) and used new X-Treme brass. There were no signs of overpressure. Have not tried other range brass yet. Do your research. Using my reloading data is at your own risk.

Perfect	March 7, 2023
Reviewer: Peter Mordigan from Lake Havasu City, AZ United States

Review from Jim Lanning pushed to by these. Loaded as he said 2.8 grains of TiteGroup. 30 test rounds. First time my Sig P320 Carry worked properly with my supressor. Just ordered 500 more. Performance at the range was great.

Xdm osp 4.5	February 24, 2023
Reviewer: Andres Quintero from Yuma, AZ United States

Loaded at 3.0 grains of titegroup 840 fps with PF 133 col sitting at 1.15 seems to have not much space to compress more.
Noticeable recoil diff from 147gn
Going to continue using these for comp on my xdm

Great for .350 legend plinker	January 10, 2021
Reviewer: Joseph D from United States

I handload these in Winchester .350 Legend, atop 15 grains of Lil' Gun, lit off with a Federal small rifle primer. In a Savage Axis II, 18", I see 1700fps. My rifle is sighted in for 170gr Hornady Interlocks to 150 yards, and these are pretty much dead on out to 175 yards with that same zero, and 1700fps velocity. They hit with authority and make a fairly reasonable plinking load in the off season to save on the more expensive .350 specific bullets. I gave them four stars as they are bigger than the .356" stated. They are measuring .357" for me. I ran them through a Lee .356" sizer and they seat much easier. 1700fps has not shown any issues with the plating separating, so I feel they will be okay at this velocity, but I wouldn't push it much faster. One other side benefit, is my seater plug is in the exact same spot, so I don't have to monkey with it when I'm seating a different bullet. I seat them to 2.120" and they should chamber perfectly in any .350 Legend chamber.

Good quality, great customer service	June 11, 2020
Reviewer: Anonymous Person from NH United States

These are beautiful and well made bulletsÃ¢â‚¬â€they work great suppressed.
Before I finally got them, the postal service lost the first order. Customer service immediately sent out a replacement order no questions asked. In fact I need to order some more...

More than happy	June 11, 2019
Reviewer: Josh from woodinville, WA United States

Only loaded about 1200 so far but I have been very satisfied. This projectile over VV N320 sounds excellent suppressed, gives you a bit more energy over 147 and saves money on expensive powder. Runs great through a glock 19/ Tirant9, MP5/ Tirant9, and B&T TP9/ Thompson machine SGK.

These are great.	May 13, 2018
Reviewer: John A. from KY

Sitting atop 2.8-3.0 gr of titegroup, these are hard hitting, and sound great.

Only way they could be improved upon would be an expanding hollow point

165 gr. 9mm	January 20, 2018
Reviewer: Mark Plummer from Vaughn, WA United States

I have loaded over 3,000 of these in mixed brass with Federal or Remington primers for more then three years. My favorite load is 2.8 gr. of Red Dot with a OAL of 1.152. It fits in all my magazines and makes between 128 and 135 power factor in all my handguns. It shoots reliably in my M&P Shield, STI 5" 1911 and my other 9's. Shoots well in carbines and has proven itself in IDPA and USPSA competition. Where I always finish in the top 10.... from the bottom! But it is never the bullets fault! As other reviewers have stated, it is very soft. This is my favorite 9mm bullet. I always finish my loads with a Factory Crimp Die.

Soft shooting and accurate out of a Shadow 2	December 8, 2017
Reviewer: Jay from Florida

I shoot a CZ Shadow 2. I first tried loading to a COL of 1.185, recommended by a friend who shoots these. Passed the chamber check but, I couldn't load more than 4 or 5 in the magazine. I read that seating these to SAAMI max COL would swage the base of the bullet. At that point I had nothing to lose so I nudged it in little by little until it would clear the front of the magazine. I ended up @ 1.169 which is exactly SAMMI max. I'm using Speer nickle plated cases with Winchester small pistol primers. I settled on 2.6gn of Cleanshot (Shooters World... I love this stuff). It just makes PF but, if it were a big match I'd probably go 2.7, maybe 2.8gn just to be sure all the rounds meet minimum PF. The recoil is unbelievably soft and it's never been so easy or fast to get back on target. I've never shot as tight of groups as I do with this setup when shooting long strings of rapid fire. I can't wait 'til they go on sale again.
