9mm Bayou Bullets and Bullseye

[LSMS]

I'm having trouble finding data for this combination. I've tried searching but the search feature is won't work using tapatalk.

As I said I have Bullseye powder. I have both the 115 and 124 gr. RN bullets from Bayou Bullets. The only thing my manual shows for Bullseye is the xtp. Starting point 4.1 gr for 115 and 3.9 for 124. I have the Richard Lee manual that came with my press and a Lyman on the way.

Is it safe to reduce those loads by 10% for a starting point? Or is there any published data I'm missing? Thanks in advance

Any of the following data is from my experience and I am not responsible for the use of such data in any way....use at your own risk!

I don't believe in listing hot loads and besides it is against the rules. The data I am passing along is my own and were not hot by any standard.

Hope I covered myself there...

115 Gr LRN Bullseye Start 3.6, work up in .2 increments.

124 Gr LRN Bullseye Start 3.4, Work up in .2 increments.

My final load for the 115 gr LRN was 4.1 gr of Bullseye COL 1.14 Chrono= 980FPS

You can call Donnie at Bayou, he will offer suggestions or you can send off an email to Alliant. Tell them what you want to load and which of their powders you have and they will send back a reply. It worked for me.

I think BDS loads a lot of BE in 9mill, maybe he will chime in.

Lyman's 49th lists a 120 gr lead round nose and has a Bullseye load

start 3.4 gr 939 fps
max 4.2 gr 1175 fps

they used an OAL of 1.065". the 120 LRN should be close enough to the 125 you have to give you a good starting point.

Thanks a lot

Made some test loads and got to try them today. Wound up with 3.8 gr of bullseye with the 115 gr RN from Bayou Bullets. OAL of 1.09

Shot great out of my CZ P07.
