Got a new Glock 42 today as well as dies,brass etc. I have a lot of Rainier 115gr HP's that I was shooting in my 9 mm, did a search for 115gr, Win. Autocomp data and came up dry. I did find data for 100gr Autocomp 3.8 min/4.2 max and Power Pistol 4.2/4.6. Autocomp appears to be running 0.4gr below Power Pistol in this application. Nosler has 115gr data for Power Pistol 3.2max. Based on this I loaded some test rounds of Autocomp and the 115gr HP's starting at 2.5gr going up to 2.9gr, 3 rounds each. New Starline brass, Win primers and COL is .984. Looking for comments on my load data and input from anyone who has loaded 115gr in the 380. I would just like to use up the bullets I have for target and getting used to my new G42.
Just in case anyone may be interested: 2.5gr tru 2.8gr would not eject and cases were somewhat blackened on one side. 2.9 gr ejected but just barley actually they landed on my shooting arm. Today I started at 3.0 and went up to 3.4, good ejection especially at 3.1/3.2 thru 3.4 and little to no case blackening. I believe I wil shoot the 3.4 maybe 3.5 next time out and chrono it to see what its doing.
