3djedi Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 (edited) I'm looking for a powder that will work well for both. That way I can stock up on just one. According to the book I have, it looks like win 231 would fit the bill. Are there others? Edited March 16, 2014 by 3djedi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
al503 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 E3 is my favorite for anything but open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TH3180 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 TiteGroup for FMJ, WST for coated lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 4756 works well. If you try it, and like it, better buy a lot as it's due to be discontinued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowenbuilt Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 e3, Ramshot Competition and N320 all work well for me in multi-calibers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postal Bob Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Titegroup. But try to find some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HotLoad Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 N320 but it is more scarce than gold! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twodownzero Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Solo 1000 works in all three Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_C Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Glad I stocked up on N320. I run it for 9mm minor now and plan on using it for 40 major soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSCaster2 Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 N320, ramshot competition, solo 1000, wst, autocomp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Lots of choices. If you are loading long for an S_I, then one of the faster powders like N320 or WST would be my recommendation. If you are loading for a striker fired or normal OAL, I would push you towards a slightly slower powder like WSF. Personally, I do not like the inconsistency of Solo1000, especially for .40 major. I too like E3, but there is no manufacturer data for it, so if that gives you pause, just walk on by. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njl Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Universal should work well for both depending on the bullets used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3djedi Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 (edited) 4756 works well. If you try it, and like it, better buy a lot as it's due to be discontinued.I actually found some of this. Nothing else is in stock. Do you have a load to try for a 9mm 124g jhp? (Montanagold....glock 34)Does it meter well?

Steve RA Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 4.5 gr for a starting load with the 124 JHP. That is what I use with a 130 LSWC and it runs right @ 1000 FPS. Yes, seems to meter well in a Dillon powder measure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropsitos Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I use 4756 under a 180gr berry's with good results. Seems to meter well in the dillon. I may try it with 9mm unless I can find something else. I really liked some 9mm rounds I put together with power pistol so I've been looking for more.

3djedi Posted March 19, 2014 Author Share Posted March 19, 2014 124g jhp montana gold on the way. Bottle of 4756 in my hands now. Won't be long now.... Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Studlee Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 I run Titegroup for both as it's more available here. I prefer N320 but as most said, good luck finding some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
