Got 3000 bullets coming in the mail, a boat load of brass, 8 lbs of W231 and I'm ready to work up a load for 9mm. Anyone got any suggestions for what's worked well? Let me know.

Thanks in advance.

What will be the firearm of choice??? I have a Firestar M43 and I feed it everything from 4.6 grains to 5.0 grains of W-231(A very hot load. Use extreme caution working up to it). Under a 115 grain Winchester JHP. Primed with either CCI 500 or WSP...The M43 has a 3.39" barrel and I am getting from 1030 fps to 1100 fps. Please remember that the 5.0 grains of W-231 is a very hot loading...

Will be fired from a Sig P226.

Have a ball...A very fine auto...Love my W-231. I use it in 9mm X 19, .38 Spec, .45 ACP and some .357 magnum...:D

231 is very good choice. Work up the load for your gun following the manuals.

My current recipe is 4.5gr WIN231, 124gr FMJ, CCI500 primer, mixed brass, 1.095 OAL.

It's a nice target load that I use in my G17, XD9 and P228

For a 115JHP and 231 Wichester factory data from a 4 inch barrel is 4.3gr at 1010fps and 25,800psi to 4.8gr at 1120 fps and 32,100psi. No overall length given.
