Reloading Load Data Needed

[Trent D]

I picked up a box of X-treme 200gr RNFP plated projectiles to load 10mm, but I'd also like to load some .40 S&W with them. I'm looking for a recommended OAL for 200gr RNFP plated projectiles in .40 S&W. I'll be putting them on top of Hodgdon CFE Pistol powder. Their website lists 1.125gr for Hornady XTPs, but I'm guessing that RNFPs are a bit shorter than the hollow points.


My Hogdon reloading manual is in storage and won't have access to it until we move into a new house and go through our storage unit.


Thanks,

Trent

My Nosler book says the min O.A.C.L. is 1.085" and the max is 1.135". Not real sure the shape of the bullet makes a difference as long as the total loaded length falls within that range.

The OAL may be within limits, but the rounds may not feed in semi-auto. Depends on the pistol's feed ramp and the bullet nose shape sometimes.
