Bullets Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Just curious what a majority of the people would use if cost was no issue and why? I know many of you shoot open as well. I'm asking for just your best all around 9mm minor powder if you had to pick one for everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWAT Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I think a lot of people would say vv n320Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chopper94 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I think some would also say Titegroup. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hwansikcjswo Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 (edited) Then I would just buy 124gr PMC ammo or Amercian eagle. I don't want to reload if I can afford factory ammo no problem. However, I am currently using Prima V. I would still use it even if I get rich. Edited March 1, 2017 by hwansikcjswo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillGarlandJr Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I'm on the Prima V bandwagon too. Love the stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCTaylor Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 If money was no object, I'd buy ammo and sell my press. But otherwise, don't care. WST, Titegroup, W231/HP38, e3, etc. have all tested, meter, and shoot well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muncie21 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I chose 'other', otherwise known as Prima V. Performance wise Prima V and N320 are very comparable. However Prima V meters much better for me, hence my vote. The fact that it is a tad bit cheaper is just icing on the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SOA1911 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Easy. True Blue. Not only can I use this powder for 9mm minor with my favorite 124 gr. bullet, the Nosler JHP, I can use this powder to load most all of my handgun cartridges. That being said, I just bought some Prima V. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortBus Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 (Never shot 320) ETR7. Its so clean, so soft yet still runs the gun quick, meters perfectly, smells good, amdmots cheap. Love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdinga Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 Creature of habit-have my loads dialed in for WSF. Have lots of n320 on standby. WSF just works great for the Zero 147 JHP's I prefer to load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However if I were rich, I'd rather have a 1050/Mark7/MBF combination to load my own ammo for me, and a D class USPSA peasant to keep it stocked. I have never found a factory ammo that shoots half as well as hand loads, and I like controlling what goes into things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
v1911 Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 I'd buy Atlanta arms match ammo if money was no object. Otger wise I'd continue using Clay/Dot and/or Prima SV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
igolfat8 Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 WSF works really well. I tried a LOT of powders and keep returning to WSF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbmac Posted March 3, 2017 Share Posted March 3, 2017 WSF, It is extremely versatile, It makes PF for IDPA/USPSA Minor with near minimum loads in everything from 115 gr to 147gr, It makes PF with loads at the bottom end of the pressure range, thus less wear and tear on the handgun, less muzzle blast, less perceived recoil, It meters extremely accurately, It burns clean, It is relatively cheap, Loads are modest volume wise, It is readily available, It has a more user friendly pressure curve, (not as snappy) as Tight Group and many other faster burning pistol powders.

foderaman Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 I have been using VV N340 for 20 years for 9mm,40 S&W ,45 ACP and 357 and it works great in all little slower burning for some but for me is a do all powder.Us N350 for 38 S Comp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Help me out here. Per Hodgdon's website, both are jacketed .355" 147 gr HP (different bullet manufacturers) out of the same test gun WSF - 147 gr HP traveling 900 fps = 30,100 PSI OAL is 1.169" Titegroup - 147 gr HP traveling 929 fps = 27,500 psi OAL is 1.100" Wouldn't the lower pressure equal less snappy recoil? I don't know if the pressure plays out the same for all bullets and calibers but for a 147 gr bullet it looks like TG would be/feel less snappy?

hdultra Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I use VV n320 exclusively in my 9mm and 40cal loads. Sure the price per lb of powder is higher, but when less than a penny per round...it's worth it in my opinion. Softer recoil, less flash and meters extremely well are my main reasons for using it.
