bagdrag Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Does anyone have minor load data using WST with 147gr jacketed bullets they use and are willing to share the information? I've searched the topic and haven't found too many loads for that bullet weight. Is it even safe to use that combination? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyT Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 Does anyone have minor load data using WST with 147gr jacketed bullets they use and are willing to share the information? I've searched the topic and haven't found too many loads for that bullet weight. Is it even safe to use that combination? The WW 14th Edition reloading manual does not list any loads for 147 gr. FMJ and WST in the 9mm. It does list the following data for the 147 gr. FMJ with WSF powder: 3.9 gr. WSF - 895 pfs - 28400 psi 4.3 gr. WSF - 950 fps - 32300 psi I have used 4.0 gr. of WSF and the Star 147 gr. FMJ in my 9mm's for a nice pin, plate, IDPA, IPSC load. I always use Winchester small pistol primers in my loads.

Rumpy Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 I use 3.5gr of WST behind a 147gr LFP for 910fps (133pf). I'm not sure about a jacketed load as I only use lead.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been lurking in the BE forums for some time just never thought I might help. Anyway, I am shooting a Glock 34 with a KKM barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
