Hi-Power Jack Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Sammy, I don't use lead bullets or either powder, but there is quite a bit written in the files here about which powders to use, and recipes, for 9mm minor loads with 124 gr lead bullets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bugsy Posted December 13, 2012 Share Posted December 13, 2012 Sammy, I use 125 gr LRN and I start with 3.2 gr Titegroup, and tried up to 3.8 gr. Though I have not used a Chrono to check for Velocity and Power Factor, b I liked the accuracy and recoil @ 20 yds loading 3.4 gr for my CZ 85 Combat. 3.6 gr is also close to the accuracy and recoil. OAL about 1.1" Since you are using 124 gr, try a starting load of 3.2 gr, 5 rounds at a time and work your way up. Do not exceed recommended max load by the manufacturer. Safe shooting!

Silver02ex Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 (edited) I use WSF for with Bayou 124gr 9mm bullets and I am pleased with the results. Same here... 4.5 Gr. gives me about 1,060 FPS out of a XDM 4.5 Edited December 15, 2012 by Silver02ex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Try 3.0 grains of Clays and work up from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave C Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 You may wish to stay away from any lead bullet bullet used in combination with Titegroup powder. This combination produces a tremondous amount of smoke and earns the shooter some interesting nicknames from fellow shooters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyZip Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 My first relaods for 9mm were this combo, but not coated. Talk about smoke! I didn't realize until I went to shoot a match where it wasn't as breezy and a bit more humid. CHOOO CHOOO! It was streaks of smoke with each shot. Obscuring targets at any static location to a minor but embarrassing level! Ugh, just the memory brings back the feelings of shame. CHOOO CHOOO!!!!
