JaeOne3345 Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 There is a lot of info on the search for this powder/caliber combo. I use a 147 grain moly over 3.4 WST at 1.130. Makes about 130-131 out of my G34's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njl Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Hodgdon will tell you it's not a suitable powder for 9mm. If you search here, you'll find lots of load data though. I've used it with 124, 130, and 147 gr bullets. I prefer Universal though for 9mm, and save the WST for .45acp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlamphere Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Here is a recipe I started using with WST: 3.3 – 3.5 grains 147gr. Berrys plated round nosed bullet (item 46736 or 74030) 1.155 OAL Works well out of my G34. Runs 129-132 PF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pensfan Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 I love WST for 147gr 9mm. I currently load BBI 147gr, 3.6 WST, 1.125" OAL and it nails 129-130 PF and is soft and clean. Wonderful round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
