sanjiro Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 Just picked up Xtreme 147 grn bullets and looking for load data using Wst using 9mm range brass. Thanks in advance. Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdinga Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 3.6-3.8 grains of WST, loaded to 1.125. Runs great in all my Glocks. For the 17L I bump up to 3.8. Mild, accurate, clean to shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanjiro Posted August 22, 2015 Author Share Posted August 22, 2015 Thanks, this helps out loading for my Glock 17 and Glock 34. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firewood Posted August 22, 2015 Share Posted August 22, 2015 I use 3.8 WST, 147g xtreme RN, in a Glock 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanjiro Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 Looks like 3.8 is a great place to start. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_striker Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 How much of the case does 3.8gr fill? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdinga Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 very good load density. You cant miss it loading on a Dillon. Way over half full Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d_striker Posted August 26, 2015 Share Posted August 26, 2015 very good load density. You cant miss it loading on a Dillon. Way over half full So it doesn't sound very dense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuck s Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 3.3 gives me 132PF in my tanfoglio and CZ. 3.8 would probably put me close to major PF. I would suggest starting with 3.2 and work up from there. I find that WST uses about the same powder load as N320 for equal PF. Be aware that WST is very inverse temp sensitive however and 320 is not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sanjiro Posted August 27, 2015 Author Share Posted August 27, 2015 Found out the inverse temp setting while loading for my mid colts for my 627and trying to make minor power factor. Thanks for all of the information. Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b1gcountry Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 WST is fairly fluffy. I have been using 4.2 with 125gr coated and have had good consistency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrguns Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 WST is fairly fluffy. I have been using 4.2 with 125gr coated and have had good consistency. what is the velocity? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out of Ammo Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 I too use 4.2 WST with 125RN. I chono it and had an average of 1050. No problem meeting minor power factor. Anyone have an idea of where to start on 135 Extreme bullets? I was thinking about 3.8 or lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aceyduce Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 3.7 under a 147 out of a shadow here. 3.3 was barely 125 PF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newtoreloading Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 (edited) Can someone explain about inverse temp sensitive? Edited December 27, 2015 by newtoreloading Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DedOn Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Typically powder will run faster in the heat and slower in the cold. WST is the opposite. You may need to bump it up a little in the summer for same power factor. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
