STI DVC open 9mm major Load Recommendations
LeoTheLion replied to LeoTheLion's topic in 9mm/38 Caliber
thank you so much for all your help!. I shot the gun today with 6.4gr WAC, 124gr JHP, OAL 1.16, and .376 crimp. I started low on the powder just to be on the safe side. It shot very well, however I'm getting about 2 out of 10 FTE and it never slide locked when empty. So, I think your suggestion of 6.8grn is just about right! Again, Thanks for your help!- 21 replies

Hello everyone, I just got my STI dvc open 9mm major and this is my first time loading major. Any recommendations of what bullet/brand should I use? RN or JHP? does anyone have an experience with this gun and has a good load data info? I searched the form and been reading the 9mm load recommendations and I just want to see if someone has an experience with the specific gun! Thanks
