It chrono'ed out VERY consistently, with several shots in each string reading the same speed. The spread in one string was only 13fps, with a 30fps spread in another(8rds). The average was over 1050fps, placing it right there with the Cor-Bon.
The cavity is a lot larger than on the Cor-Bon, and the overall profile is like ball rather than the truncated cone. There is a half-hearted attempt at scoring the rim of the leading edge of the jacket. It looks as though they were trying to imitate the 'twist' pattern of Golden Sabre. It is rather shallow, and the spacing beween the cuts is inconsistent. Needless to say, the feeding was perfect.
My best 25yd group with it was 3.5", and I know I threw one of those. The other 4 were in about 2.5". It still printed about 6" high, but it was perfectly centered. The Wolf ball that I had for practice was not as accurate, and printed about 4"-6" to the left.
I hand-cycled a mag full, chambering each round from slide lock. The indentations from the firing pin inertia were hardly noticeable on the primers. With Blazer, Cor-Bon, and S&B there are clear round indents on each. Considering there is no spring holding back the pin, I will feel more comfortable carrying this load knowing it has a harder primer. Now, I have to buy a case of it.
