9mm Major Win 296?

Hello, I am a fan of Win 296 in other calibers, but I wonder if it can be used to load 9mm Major. Some say it won't and I am wondering why. Is it not able to make the velocity or overpressure? If it's possible I'd still like to load it for the fire breathing capability if nothing else. It's always fun to load some flashy rounds. Any ideas on where to start?

Thanks for your time!

Minor pf might be possible but I doubt you can get it to major pf. It's ranked as a fairly slow powder. It'll take up quite a lot of volume. Made for 357 magnum and larger cartridges where case capacity isn't an issue.
