I'm getting ready to start reloading 9mm and i'm wanting to use....
W231 powder with a MBC 115g LRN bullet.
W231 powder with a 124g FMJ bullet.
Hodgdon shows the 115g LRN at 4.3-4.8g. With a OAL of 1.100. It shows the 124g FMJ at 4.4-4.8g. With a OAL of 1.090.
If i load them both at 4.6g would that be a good load to plink with? It would also give me a little leanancy if Lee's disk is a .1g +/- off. I'm going to weigh it either way but im not sure how consistant the Lee disks are.
Also does that seem a little short on the OAL of those rounds?
These will be shot in a G19 and M&P
Any suggestions will be appreciated. I'm pretty much set on the powder and bullets. I just dont know what load i should use. I'd like a fairly accurate round but my biggest concern is leading with the LRN bullets. I'm hoping someone will already have a load with the combo that they can give to me to try out, so i dont have to go through all the guessing stages....
