Congratulations, you gonna love it , it’s eaten everything I put through it so far 115 124 147 FMJ 124 147 Hollow point. Good luck with it keep us updated.

Thanks BamBam, will do, gun Bud ordered a couple spare 12 round mags for me today, good to hear it's been eating everything fine, I hand cycled both 10 round mags with the 130gr FMJ's, really smooth, didn't hear/feel any sort of hesitations, my Wife had to run down to her sisters unexpectedly this afternoon, seems one of her nieces is about to drop twin pups.

She'll be out at the farm to see it tomorrow evening.

When I first got mine I had issues with my right hand thumb riding the slide, figured that out pretty quick got all of that ironed out. Just be aware of that. But I have big hands, not as prevalent with a 12 round mag. I carry it AIWB,For me very comfortable. Twins, ouch :-) that’ll keep you busy :-)

10-4, I learned on my P226 to stay off that slide release, natural to want to park your thumbs there after shooting 1911's for so long, she has small hands and will do fine on the grip alone, have been letting her practice gripping my G21, she's never wanted to put thumbs up top, and HOLY SHEET, them early pups aint mine it's my Wifes sisters daughter that's having them, looks like they're wanting to get started a week or so early ; ]

There is nothing that competes with the P365, for trigger,accuracy, reliability and capacity. I really like mine.

Seriously??

It would seem obvious to most that JWP is speaking of a package in that size.

I’m very serious.


Exactly

Yeah, it’s pretty bad ass.

Granted, it's the most reliable double stack 9mm that's exactly that size.

15 yards standing

For those that OWN other Sig SA/DA pistols, can you describe the trigger action/crispness please ?

Good shooting JWP, that will work!

For those that have shot these mini P365's, what are your thoughts of hand loaded 115gr XTP's between 11 and 12 hundred fps for my Wife? do you guys see lighter and faster more snappy, or less overall recoil from being lighter?

I trust the XTP's, not fancy or flashy, but I've never had one fail across the caliber spectrum, and they've always shot plenty accurate for me, Thanks in advance for any info.

I would load 124 grain XTP I’m not convinced the 11t’s offer as much.

10-4 Thanks JWP, I'll see how she handles the 130gr fmj factory loads, then chrono two or three, and hand load from there.

I thought I remember a Bud telling me long ago that 115gr XTP was a tough little sombitch, I need to call him tomorrow.

He may have been referring to you being the tough SOB. Just a thought......

LOL, tough, no, thickheaded HELL YES! iirc he said that little bullet dug really deep and held together well, I noticed the 135gr Hornady Critical Duty's being a +P load, may be too much for Wife just getting started.

Just some data points for you based on chrono readings from my gun:
Winchester White Box Factory 115 gr. FMJ, Avg. 1059, H 1099, L 1011, ES 88, SD 29, 10 shots. (I got 100 fps more out of a Gen 4 Glock 19)
Factory Speer standard pressure Gold Dot 124 gr. Avg. 1047, H 1073, L 1015, ES 58, SD 23, 10 shots. (I got 99 fps more out of a Gen 4 Glock 19)
Buffalo Bore 147 grain +P hard cast flat point Outdoorsman, Avg. 1010, H 1035, L 994, ES 40, SD 11.8, 10 shots. (I got 1058 out of a Gen 4 Glock 19)

I also chronographed some Sellier and Belllot 115 FMJ in a different 365 and got Avg 1125, H 1143, L 1107, ES 36, SD 14.9, 5 shots. 124 Gold Dots and 115 Winchester White box chronographed about 10 fps higher than my gun.

I don't really see the need to hot rod the gun. But, that's just me.
