RETEST: Glock 19 Gen5 Federal Premium Tactical 147gr HST

 801 Views
In General

Retest of Glock 19 Gen5 with Federal 147gr HST. The first test showed a surprisingly large group size that wasn't consistent with data from the 124gr HST or the 147gr HST shot through the Glock Gen3. This retest showed results more in line with what you would expect given the performance of the same round in the Gen3.

As we do these tests we're reporting exactly what we find without sugar coating the results. While we don't plan to retest every round that shows poor results, the fact that the 147gr HST Gen3 groups were half the size of our original Gen5 test left enough doubt that a retest was needed. These results are more in line with the other gun and will be the final results for this round in our testing.
