    115 grain Xtreme Hollow Points 9mm

    Just got some Xtreme Hollow Points 115 grain 9mm. Was wondering what load to use. How deep do I seat them? Use w231. How many grains should I start with? Thanks

    Use low to mid jacketed data or full range lead data. Use any HP oal as a starting point and do a plunk test. As with any load development start low and work up.

    Thanks Codyspowell! I usually load 115g nosler hollow points. 1.100" COL. You use these Xtreme bullets? What load works good for you if you do?
