My shadow 2 load with 135gr blue bullet truncated cone is 3.2gr titegroup loaded to 1.145in overall length. It chronos at 127pf.

Once I switched to the MA dies my hundo pass rate has gone up to around 95-99% vs around 75-80% when I was using a Dillon and Lee U-die for 9mm. Most of my case gauge failures were caused from using bulged brass. To me those dies are worth it!

I’ve started using FP-10 because dan wesson recommends it for their gun. I’ve also used slip 2000 ewl with good results too. Stays put and doesn’t burn off.

3.9gr of TG behind a 124gr Xtreme RN plated @ 1.150 overall length with a Winchester small pistol primer is about 1050fps out of a 5in 1911.

Another vote for slip200 ewl

I currently load 3.9gr titegroup under a xtreme 124gr rn at 1.140 oal with a Winchester primer. Makes about 130 pf out of my glock 34 with a kkm barrel.

I checked hodgdons website andnit stated 4.7gr was the max charge for tite group. Maybe I got it mixed up with Lyman's 49th, I'll have to double check the book to see if there is a 40 recipe using tite group.

Crimping to 0.422-0.423

Out of which gun? When I tried 4.6gr of titegroup behind a 180gr xtreme rnfp at 1.125 oal and was only able to get about 890fps/160pf out of my stock glock 22. The recoil felt great but it didn't make major.

I was curious if anyone else had a recipe to make minor power factor out of a glock 22 or 35 using titegroup, xtreme plated 180gr rnfp, and Winchester small pistol primers? I chrono'd some rounds and had to up the powder charge to 4.9gr of titegroup at 1.125 overall length to get it to make major pf out of a stock glock 22. Lyman's 49th states 4.7gr as the max charge. I inspected the cases afterwards and didn't see any signs of overpressure on the primer. Should I play with the overall length or put a little bit more crimp on the round to lower the powder charge below the recommended max. And if you have a load that uses 180gr xtreme rnfp and titegroup powder, please share if you don't mind. Thanks.

If you don't mind, mind sharing your load data? I have some prima v and want to try some out in 40 major with 180gr plated for myself

They're sold in 1.1lbs containers, little bit more bang for your buck.

I'm curious too, I guess I should've asked glock at shot show but didn't even think of it.

180gr xtreme at 1.130oal with 4.5gr titegroup and a s&b primer got an average of 932fps from a smith and Wesson m&p 40.

If you don't mind me asking, how much powder and what overall length are you loading the 9mm 147gr fp blue bullets to?
