FN 509 LS Edge

Bryontrantham

I can't get the gun to shoot 115 gn bullets reliably. I reload and hsve tried adjusting powder, and over all length. FN says I'm shooting "crap" bullets. Anyone out there using commercial 115 gn bullets OR making 115 gn reloads that work well with the 509? If you are reloading what's your formula if you don't mind telling me.
 
I'm shooting the 509C.
I'm running the 124 or 125gr Sig V Crown made by Sierra.
This in range pickup brass, CCI primer, and Ramshot Silhouette powder.

I also use the 115gr Sierra HP with Silhouette.
 
I load 115 plated bullets on top of 4.5 gn of WST. Not shooting an FN though. The load isn't crazy hot, but functions fine in a CZ P-01.
 
Tell us what you are shooting! Bullet, primer, powder, how much powder. Overall length, Crimping? If so how much? Does factory ammo shoot ok? Do you have other pistols that you shoot ok? And do you know the twist of the gun?
