I never favored 9mm lead loads, but with 147gr it's okay. But, too fast and it leads. With 115gr and 124gr it's hard to run it slow enough. I ran thousands of lead 9mm. Not again. But, TG is fast and will make things worse.

I'm a fan. I like the "push" recoil of the slower burning powder (compared, for example to Clays and TG). Feels like a light .45acp. I've been pleased with Solo 1000 metering in my SDB. No issues. I have noticed what felt (on recoil and sound) like variation in a couple loads when fired. Have not chrono the loads. I run 3.6-3.8gr in a G19 w/ 125gr LRN ~1.135 OAL. Runs great w/ little smoke compared to TG for example. I've run up to 4gr w/ no signs on pressure in a LWD G19 barrel, but I do noticed the recoil and sound difference.

I had light hits with my Glock only with CCI primers, old white/red box. Took 2-3 hits. Stock springs. Only primer that had this issue. I've since put Wolff 6lb striker springs in my Glock for harder hits. Used up those CCIs. New blue box don't have issues.
