GForceLizard Posted April 8, 2010 Share Posted April 8, 2010 Now, I'm running a 130gr BBI LCN, over 3.7 Solo1000 at an OAL of 1.125. This is my pet load, and I will stay with it for the next long while. It is just right in all aspects. I run this load with .1gr more powder (3.8gr) in a G17. Mine chronos at 1007fps with bullets that weigh 132gr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cuzinvinny Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 My favorite was a lead 147 gr RNFP over 3.4 grains of WW231. I have since tried the Black Bullets International 147 gr TC and WSF (4.0 grains). The WSF reduced the smoke even when used with the lead bullet. The BBI coated bullets further reduce the smoke. So it looks like my new favorite will be a 147 grain BBI TC over top of 4.0 grains of WSF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goosedowner Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 (edited) my favorite will be a 147 grain BBI TC over top of 3.8 grains of WSF. This is a very sweet shooting load in my CZ75 SA. Edited April 11, 2010 by goosedowner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PF - 128 I thought titegroup was very similar to N320 but a double charge of TG would not overflow the case. So for safety I chose N320. Disclaimer: Please use these numbers for comparison only. Double check with multiple sources and work loads up slowly checking for signs of overpressure. Edited April 11, 2010 by winter5470 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerryO Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I've been loading 147gn Montana Gold CMJ over 3.8grns of N340 at 1.13 OAL. I think I'm going to switch to 124grn MG CMJ and bump to 4.6grns of N340. Not much difference in recoil but snappyer cycle of the slide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drysideshooter Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 For my XDM 9mm I have been happy with: 124 MG FMJ 4.7 WSF CCI Small Pistol Primers WCC or FC brass 1.154" Out of my XDM the PF is about 132 average. I have shot about 2k of these loads now and the recoil is light, and everything cycles quickly. I have been loading using Lee dies, but not using the factory crimp die. I've been able to get the mouth to spec using the bullet seating/crimp die adjusted right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lord torquestick Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Dannix...that 160 gr that M109R is using came from Penn Bullets. I have tried that load since he gave it to me and he is 100% correct. Its a sweet shooting round out of 3 of my 9's.I wish i could find a mold for it !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E5MC Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 (edited) I'm liking 4.2gr of N320 and MG 124gr RN at 1.40 OAL. I'll probably switch to Titegroup for half the cost when I run out of N320. I'm also going to try some Bear Creek boolits. Edited June 19, 2010 by E5MC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want a mold, 45 2.1's 360640 design from BRP may interest you. They're part of the Cast Boolits community, which I highly recommend you at least acquaint yourself with if you're a caster. Careful though -- those group buys can be addicting, particularly for stuff you just can't get otherwise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted June 19, 2010 Share Posted June 19, 2010 WOW! What a difference a year makes! I ditched the Pro and now shoot a G34. I also moved to N320. It really is a better powder. My current pet load: 4.2 N320 MG 124 FMJ OAL 1.13 R-P brass Wolf SPP PF 134+ Av ES 13 Av SD only 5.5 Wonder what I'll be shooting next year?

I'm also going to try some Bear Creek boolits. Have you ever done a cost breakdown on powder? I switched to 320 after doing the math. I use 4.2 320 which comes out to about 1.3ish cents per round compared to TG, 1000, etc which is about .8 cents per round. It's only a penny a piece any way you slice it. Or a difference of about $5 per thousand. Other than free brass, powder is the cheapest component. Might as well use the good stuff.
