mosqueeler Posted September 29, 2008 Share Posted September 29, 2008 I got a M&P 9 from GIO last week and thought i would try a load. Checked out this spot in here and thought i would give the 147 lead load with the clays charge. Got a lot of clays due to the .45 acp addiction. Have 2 550's set up one for the 45 and the other for the 40. Anyway pulled out the 40 S&W dies and addjusted the the 9mm dies. Heres the good part!!! Just for kicks i droped a 10 charges of the clays and checked the grain weight. I got the load i wanted, 2.7g was it!! Took it out and shot 20 through the M&P and it shot great, cycled all rounds and shot a pretty good group. I think i will keep it. I need to chrono them but i dont think i will change a thing. As was posted very light recoil. Going to have trouble keeping those loaded i am afraid. My load for the 40 was in tightgroup 4.7g(i think) guess with the size difference of the type of powder it worked. Who would have thunk it. just though i would share.
