    110gr Z-max load development for a SIG MCX Virtus 300 BLK "pistol"

    Finally getting around to developing a load for my wifes Sig. Im using factory second 110 grain Z-max bullets, Lil' gun powder, starline brass, and CCI SR primers. COL 2.050, starting charge is 18.9gr with a max charge of 21.1gr. (.1 over max listed, going to carefully watch for pressure signs).

    Not really sure what the intent is for this load, but they were selling for less than any bullet i could find on the interwebs at the time for 300 blackout. So i bought 1000 and spent a little over $100. Havent seen them that cheap since. Ive seen no problems at all with any of the bullets ive looked at or loaded.

    Ill update here after i shoot the loads. Ill just be shooting for groupings as i dont have a chrono at the moment.
