Onepocket Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 I have almost ran through all if my 231. Titegroup is what I have been able to get a hold of. That being said what bullet weight does titegroup like 124 or 147 or does it matter. I like and use Bayou bullets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiggerJJ Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) I use TG across the board, 9, 40, and 45. With different weight bullets, major, and minor. The only pistol powder I need, other than hs6 for open. jj Edited February 15, 2015 by RiggerJJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDPA SO Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 My favorite is VV N320 but a friend of mine uses TG exclusively i his 9mm with Xtreme 147 RN and really likes it. A bit too sooty for my liking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaijin Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 124 gr. PD or "Blue bullet" (round nose) with 4 gr. TG gives me 135+- PF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniper3 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I use the extreme 147 grain rn in both my 9's and 38 supers and works great. goes along ways also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PiratePast40 Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 I 've shot quite a bit of X-Treme 124g hp over 4.2 grains TG at 1.150 OAL. Velocity is 1050. Accurate load and gives that sexy slight discoloration on the muzzle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverBolt Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 For minor 3.1-3.2gr of TG and a 147 bullet is a sweet shooting load. 1.15 OAL for a Glock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niland Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 Love TG for 9mm. It's all I run anymore, and it seems like nobody else is buying. Pretty easy to find. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S&W686 Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I use Titegroup for all my 9mm. I have been shooting Black Bullets International 124, 135, and 147. All have worked very well with Titegroup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stick Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 3.1gr Titegroup behind a 147 gr Bayou at 1.130 OAL. GREAT LOAD!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abacus Posted February 17, 2015 Share Posted February 17, 2015 I use Titegroup for both 124 grain and 147 grain bullets and it works great for both. 124 grain Xtreme I use 4.1 grains of Titegroup 147 grain Xtreme or RMR I use 3.2 grains of Titegroup both loads are accurate and recoil softly. They make PF for IDPA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gahunter12 Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I use Titegroup in my 9mm, .40s&w, and .45acp loads. My current 9mm load is 135gr Bayou Bullets, 3.4gr of TG, OAL 1.160" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattx Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I use 3.1 @ 1.14 with the 147gr extremes out of a 34. I did a pretty comprehensive search on here and this is what most were using. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canine582 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 great powder, bought 16#'s last month. still can't understand why some are spooked by it. anything bad can happen, if you decide to go brain dead while loading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaskillo Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 TG is good powder. It is what I am using at the moment for 9mm, 380 acp and 40SW I also have W231, HP38, CFE pistol and Power Pistol as well but will keep loading TG until I run out of stock....at least 3 yrs from today. People are afraid of double charge using TG but if you keep an eye on what you are doing and use common sense then you should be ok. There is always risk when you reload so PLEASE be careful and use common sense. Powder check is a great tool for those worried about double charge.

Onepocket Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) Just FYI 231 and HP38 are the same powder. The "Powder Factor Show" has 3 different episodes interviewing the president if Hodgedon Powders. Lots if great info on there. Thanks for everyone's input on Titegroup, at the moment I am shooting a ton of rounds and going through a lot of powder. I am buying and using what ever I can use.

Justin C. Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Not familiar with the Powder Factor Show. What is it and where can it be seen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickb45 Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 I really like 3.4 grains of TG with a 135 grain Bayou bullet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Onepocket Posted February 19, 2015 Author Share Posted February 19, 2015 The Power Factor Show is a podcast. Some can be found on YouTube. I like the old shows I really don't watch it anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creek Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 My match load for 9MM CZ Shadow T and Compact L is as follows: Remington 115 FMJ; 4.5 Grains of Hodgen Titegroup; Federal SPP; 1.140 OAL.. The load is very accurate and recoil is snappy. I've tried Titegroup with 125 grain RNL, but it is too smokey for my purposes. Evidently it burns a little hot.

jman93 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I started using TG with 124gr MG and they felt great. Then I switched to 135 BBI with TG and it feels like cheating. 124gr / 3.9 TG / 1.140 = 132pf 135gr / 3.2 TG / 1.140 = 132pf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
