So while at my local range today the owner gave me 1000 FMJ bullets. I've never loaded 115 grain bullets before,so I'm looking to get pointed in a direction to help save me time, the powders that I have are titegroup win autocomp power pistol AA7 unique any and all advice would be great, charge,coal, ect, ect.

by the way these will be loaded on the Dillon 650 for Glock 9 mm

thanks Sarge I know you're an asset to this sub forum but I was really hoping to get some recipes on this thread thank you

There is an entire forum here devoted to loading 9mm. Best to just click on over there and type 115 into the search window.

Probably 1000 recipes for you to choose from

I was working up a production load for my XD Tactical (5inch) and I had a few bullets to try so I thought I would share the data in case it helps someone.

Bullet - Montana Gold JHP 125 gr

Powder - Titegroup - 4.0gr

OAL - 1.125

Federal SPP

Avg for three strings - 1118, 1119, and 1124

Lowest PF of 134.5 with an avg PF of 139.9

These had a high STDEV, not sure of reason, but they feel great and the gun loves them. Very accurate.

Bullet - Zero 125gr JRN

Powder - Titegroup - 4.0gr

OAL - 1.120

CCI SPP

Avg for two strings - 1134, 1123

Lowest PF of 139.25 with an avg PF of 140.4

The zeros felt exactly like the MG 125s and were just as accurate. I would let price decide this choice.

Bullet - Montana Gold JHP 115gr

Powder - Titegroup - 4.2gr

OAL - 1.120

Federal SPP

Avg for two strings - 1157, 1154

Lowest PF of 130.6 with an avg PF of 132.7

I didnt prefer the way the front sight came back with the 115 over the heavier 125s. For whatever reason they are not quite as accurate either, but accurate enough for certain.

4.5 grains of Tightgroup with 115 grain FMJ, OAL 1.100, pushes 1150 fps. Best Accuracy is 4.2 @1100 fps. 4.5 probably maxes SAAMI pressures

4.5 is a maximum load so use caution!

I've used 4.6 gr titegroup with 115 gr berrys JRN bullets and a COL of 1.150 + .005 to get 1100fps + 30 fps but that is with a G17. At 5.0 grains I was seeing 1250 fps with the G17 just for reference. I don't have results with this load for my G34 gen4. Sorry, but I hope this helps.

Just a few seconds of searching...

No, let's don't search. Let's just take up all the space and time to rehash.
