Does anyone have a subsonic load for the lehigh defense 174 controlled fracturing bullets useing either 1680 or h110? Im shooting it out of a 16" bolt gun.
Lehigh Defence 174 grn Controlled fracturing Load
- Thread starter anschutz64ms
- Start date
Did some testing today and it looks like 9.8 grns of 1680 is the winner. It puts me at 1033fps with about 23 fps deviation in 5 shots.
***notice: semi-necro-thread resurrection***
Ok, we loaded some of these up (see pic). 10.0gr of A1680 got 1040fps out of my 10.5" SBR AR.
Shot four piggies at ranges from 40 to 100 yds. Small sample size I know, but we didn't notice anything dramtically different compared to 208gr Amax loads. Did notice one round went clean through a smaller pig, exit wound not much larger than entry...sorry, didn't play Quincy and go cutting into the other pigs for more analysis.
Anyone else got some empirical results with these? Was thinking of stepping up to their 194gr "Maximum Expansion" bullet, but the expense is hard for me to rationalize for simple Hog eradication.
