MARKAVELI Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I dont shoot compatition yet, but when I am wiping up a load in "THE LAB" for plinkering I use ALLIANTS POWER PISTOL. and sofar I am liking the price, how well it measures and easy it is to spot a double charge and versatility... curently loading for: 44Mag,40cal and 45ACP at the moment... just to throw this out there as an option..

BigBets Posted January 14, 2011 Share Posted January 14, 2011 Im a fan of WSF (winchester super field) if you are trying for a relatively cheap powder that will work well in both calibers..It is a slower powder than V320 and will work especially well in 9mm...works well in 45....especially for those hotter loadings Bets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derrel Posted January 15, 2011 Share Posted January 15, 2011 I also have used WSF for 9 & 45 and like it. I've been trying Power Pistol for 9mm with good results lately just trying to find the magic combination w 124gr jhp and my Sig P226 / P229's.

ALEKATNM Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I use titegroup for the 45. Dont talk about your home security plans, they can be used against you in court. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astroskg Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 i have been using Power Pistol for both 9mm And 40 SW and it lists 45. i really like this powder it seems to burn real clean and have never had any problems with it in either of my loads i guess i am the only one who uses it because everyone else lists other powders they use Is there something Wrong with Power Pistol Powder?

ShooterSteve Posted January 31, 2011 Share Posted January 31, 2011 I shoot a lot of .40, but what has been a great help to me is the load guide that I got from Dillon. It has all the loads from the manual of all the different bullet makers. While it may not give you what many feel is the "best" load, it is great to cross reference. You can look at the 9mm pages and see powders, and then check those against the .45 info. Also, I trust the experience that you will get from shooters on the BE forums, but it never hurts to cross reference stuff against a book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Na, your not, I like this powder and use it for 4 calibers, not bad of a price $52.00 for a 4Lb jug is not bad at Midwayusa.com...it not a fast burning powder but its not slow not the best of powders but not the worst..

photog Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Alliant makes great stuff. I'm using American Select in 9mm, 40 and 45. There are major and minor loads for all the calibers. Also its bulky so a double charge is nearly impossible due to the large volume it takes up in the case. My next is going to be Power Pistol.
