Accurate Powder Solo 1000 9mm data Edition 3.5

[MTGlass]

Hi all,

I just stumbled onto this Accurate data sheet yesterday. It includes published loading data for Solo 1000 in 9mm with jacketed, lead and plated bullets. It showed up on page 2 of my google results. The URL makes me think it was published in 2011. Searching this forum I don't find where this link has been posted previously. My apologies if this is old news.

So far, this data seems to jive with what I saw running some 147gr. cast & 3 - 3.2gr of Solo1k over my chrono this past weekend.

I don't have privs to post links yet, so you have to google it on your own.

Have been using Solo1000 for years in 9mm and 45 ACP. I have found if you push the 9mm lead rounds over 1050 they smoke. Have been using 125gr fp lead moly coated in a BHP and a Glock 19 3.8 gr. No leading or drop off in accuraccy.

45 ACP 200gr SWC at 850-875 are fine.

Good luck,

Mike

What were your results and your COAL? I loaded up a lot of 3.2gr around 1.145, but don't have a chrono.

My FPS notes are at home, but here's what I tested:

3.0gr Solo1k, Wolf std primers, WCC 1x cases, 147gr cast TC - hand weighed charges, low SD & ES

3.0gr. Solo1k, Win Mag primers, WCC 1x cases, 147gr cast TC - hand weighed charges, low SD & ES

3.2gr. Solo1k, Wolf std primers, WCC 1x cases, 147gr cast TC - loaded progressively on 550B, higher SD & ES.

Fired all three loads through XDm 5.25 & CZ75b. Each load was faster through the XDm.

IIRC, OAL is ~1.145 but I'll have to verify that. I'll try to remember to bring my notes in tomorrow.

Thanks, I'll be interested to see how the CZ did; it's a little closer in barrel length to what I have.

Nominal OAL for the 147 cast loads is 1.145", actual ran 1.142"-1.148". I shot up all the 115 plated rounds & can't remember/find the OAL.

BTW, This is a small sample size. I only fired 10 rounds of each load, 5 through each gun. YMMV.

Thanks; this is very helpful. A buddy is getting a chrono, so now I have some good starting points.
