  1. In this era of computers and websites, does anyone have a chart where a person puts in a particular bullet (say FMJ 125 gr 9mm), then enters a desired velocity (or power factor - say 1000fps for 125pf), control primer and case (say Fed/WIN) then requests how many grains of different powders will achieve that goal?

     

    Example: I enter 125gr FMJ, 1000fps, Fed primer, WIN case = "how many grains" "XYZ powder".

     

     

  2. Bump to an old thread from a new guy who looked up this very subject.  Being brand new to reloading (but a shooter for half century) as I'm putting together a kit I'm overwhelmed with info.  The case length (as opposed to OAL) came up & since I spend an hour last night going through a box of once fired, cleaned & polished 9mm brass I just bought, to separate by headstock (1 group WIN, 1 group Blazer, 1 group FC, and 1 group everything else) I measured some at random from each of the three branded/separate groups.  VERY few made it to .750, with most of them running around .742 +/-.  Glad it's something I don't have to worry about, but I might buy a small bag of new brass tomorrow just to measure case length.  Thanks!
