Bakerjd Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 So my tinkering with anything I can hobby got the better of me the other day. Ended up getting 5lbs of shooters world clean shot to mess around with. Everything I read/skimmed through sounded good about it in 9 minor. So anyone have any load data with 135gn coated bullets? My usual OAL is 1.19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Dedmon Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Don't use 135's but,,,,, 4.2 grs with a 125 HAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
truespode Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I use 135 truncated cone blue bullets with 3.6 gr Clean Shot and OAL 1.19. I get about 129 PF on average. I have only been loading a short time and haven't tried much else but I like this setup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKJD Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 135 grain coated Ibejiheads with 3.55 grains of Clean Shot @ OAL of 1.20 chronoed at 9 degrees F gave me average velocity of 971 pfs with a spread of 15 fps. Power Factor 131. I've been using Clean Shot for a few years now and its all I use for 9mm in both CO and PCC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bakerjd Posted August 14, 2022 Author Share Posted August 14, 2022 Well I'm almost out of ramshot comp so I'll be changing here soon. How clean is clean shot? And how well does it meter through a dillon powder funnel? How much smoke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how well does it meter through a dillon powder funnel? How much smoke? Cleanshot is fantastic. It’s one of the best metering powders out there. Average smoke in my experience. It’s a bit reverse temp sensitive… so if you developed your load in the heat… you’ll get a few extra FPS in the winter. It’s my go-to powder for carry optics and PCC.

All the Cleanshot folks try to say it’s the coated lead bullets coatings softening… but I don’t get the same FPS drop in the summer running Alliant Sport Pistol with the same bullets. Not a deal breaker… just something to be aware of if you’re shooting a sport with power factor minimums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I try to do all my load development in the winter. I'm in MI amd have access to a 24hr indoor range. I usually like my load to be around 130PF anyways. Have you used sport pistol for 9 minor? I know a few people who use it for limited in 40 major and like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a few people who use it for limited in 40 major and like it. I love sport pistol as well. At “room temps” I find sport pistol and Cleanshot to load identically for the same velocity. Same for the winter months. Hot (85+) is the only time I really see a difference in the two. sport pistol isn’t as “fine” as Cleanshot, but it loads just as consistently for me. I wouldn’t hesitate to use either for minor loads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe4d Posted September 8, 2022 Share Posted September 8, 2022 Same powder as Accurate #2,, Been around for a long time,, Give it a new cool name and POOF its the latest greatest. It is a fine grain powder so meters well. Id call it medium fill. More than tightgroup less than clays. Doesnt smoke like TG does with Moly coated,, but havent used TG with the newer poly type coating so cant compare. Its one of those powders I just got from a getting out of reloading situation.. Then ran across a trade for some AA#5 I had no use for,, So ended up with a bunch. Would run it in 9 minor 40 minor 40 major, 45 acp standard stuff. Probably 38 special,, but tend to make alot of just blasting ammo and I have a bunch of partial cans of powder to use up and alot of 38 brass.
