Campro 9mm 115 CPRN /CFE pistol?

[Brianma65]

I can't find a load for campro 115 copper plated rn and CFE pistol , using my Hornady manual or hodgdonreloading . I went with 5.3 g as my start load. Is there a better way to find this info and is what I did ok?

I have had good luck e-mailing Cam Pro, it takes a couple days to get back to them but they will give you a starting point likely.

I just checked on the hodgdon sight, & what you did looks good. 5.3 grs is 10% below max & a good place to start. If it cycles your pistol (I'm sure it will) then you just have to load for accuracy. Be aware that the max load listed is only 0.6 grs above your start load; so use caution if your using a volumetric dispenser, be sure of your charge weights. Double check & your good to go!
By the way cam pro bullets can be used for full power loads.

yes, just use the bullet weight and the closest bullet profile you can for your loading needs. don't worry about OAL, just make sure it cycles in your gun (chamber and mags).

I loaded and fired 300 rnds last weekend, loaded with 5 g of the same powder. Using a M&P 9 with factory sights ,accuracy is hard to tell, for me anyway. What I did notice was with factory sellier bellot 155g, the cases were ejecting about 10 ft. With my campro 115 and CFE pistol ,5 g powder, the cases were ejecting about 5 ft. That's why I increased the load. Back to accuracy, I can put either rnd in a 6 inch diameter circle . Just not I the same hole .

Starting load is fine and the Hodgdon site is a good place to go. I would try to cross reference the start load data from other sources to be extra careful but Hodgdon should be fine.

I use 5.3 grains of CFE under a 124 gn Campro plated RNFB (COL 1.15") in a Glock 17 with good success.

I would make sure that the COL is not shorter than that listed if you increase your loads to near max. I'm sure you know that pressure increases as COL decreases.

Yes I know that, I keep them at col. I've only increased .3 and am still under max. I just not sure if the Plated bullet will change the variables much, over the lead bullets.
