Yes 3N38 is very good powder, not the easiest to find, but it's super consistent and very slow burning. You will run out of room for powder before you see pressure signs.

Looks interesting! One thing I lack is bullet casting, I may have to start up.

I had the urge to run a few through my gen4 G27 today. I wanted to try a good 200gr hardcast load, and try a few using Blue Dot, a powder I have several pounds of but never have messed with it much. Humid out and around 75 degrees.

Glock 27 Gen4 (stock)

200gr Beartooth WFNGC, 8.4gr VV 3N38 @ 1.130": 1,032 fps (4 fps ES!!)

180gr MG JHP, 8.9gr Blue Dot @ 1.120": 1,050 fps (3 fps ES!!)

180gr MG JHP, 9.3gr Blue Dot @ 1.120": 1,097 fps (16 fps ES, 5% over book)

Now these probably aren't what you would load up if you're looking for easy recoil and super fast follow up shots, but they do pack a punch since remember, these are coming from a 3.5" barrel.

Brass had some swelling, but even factory ammo had it so I'm not concerned, just the typical stuff.

Thanks for the info on the mod.27.

I posted on the 21 club about some bullets for the 460 that
you are playing with, if you are in the USA I will send you
some to try.
I now think I will have to get a 275gr fn like the one your
shooting, looks so good.
By the way you are right Yahshua does save.
