This keeps coming up, but the answer's the same. Winchester does NOT recommend WST in 9mm and therefore shows NO data for it. While you may get away with trying it, a lack of data generally shows that a powder is unsuitable/unsafe for the application considered.

I recall the good old days of the early 2000's when Academy Sports sold that ammo at $3.67 a box (when I'd buy cases of it, they thought I was crazy). My chrono testing of it was shocking. Its average velocity was 1167 from a Glock 17 OEM barrel with an ES of <30 fps and single digit SDs. It grouped well and I wish I'd bought a truckload of it. Haven't tried any of the new production stuff though.

Likes to be loaded to full power and shows great accuracy potential. Very "blasty" and gives best velocities at standard pressure loadings. Love it in 9mm, .38 Special and .44 Special full power loadings.

Take a look at this: http://www.hensleygibbs.com/edharris/articles/Revisiting The Double-End Wadcutter and the FBI Load.htm The whole site is a great read from a very knowledgeable guy in the industry for years.

I use 3.5 Bullseye or 4.0 231/HP-38 with the 148 DEWC. Gives full power, standard pressure and is a great field load for the .38 Special.

I never carry reloaded ammo for defense...

Guys, I appreciate all your help on this! I will use your input and data and see what I end up with.

As Wayne Dobbs in Allen, TX I make the bold assumption you are part of Hardwire Tactical...none of my business of course LOL...but Hardwire Tactical has a great rep in the training community! Thanks, I am one half of Hardwired Tactical Shooting and appreciate your compliments.

I have TG, 231/HP-38, WST, Solo 1000 and Bullseye. Minor loads needed.

Looking for load suggestions on both of the listed Precision Bullets coated bullets. All your help is greatly appreciated!

Those Bob Marvel groups do contain some 9mm groups. They're 6.1 of Power Pistol with a 115 XTP.

Thanks for all the help guys!

I'm only looking for Minor loads in the 130 pf range.

Interested in your experiences and load recommendations for CFE Pistol with 115 and 124 grain bullets in 9mm.

I've been loading mine to 1.08 OAL for various Glocks and my VP9s. I've been using 4.1 Titegroup and 4.6 231/HP-38. Great functional reliability and accuracy for a plated bullet.
