Any recommendations?
What I'd like- one powder that produces little SD in velocity and will make major in both 180gr 40 and 200gr 45ACP and doesn't smoke a ton with moly bullets. I think a good answer is VVN320, and I'd pay for it, but I can never get my hands on it so I'd like to limit it to common easy to find stuff.
My history so far-
Win231- still have some, couldn't get anything near consistent loads. FPS would increase as I shot, EVERYTIME. I could load 100 rounds and then randomly pick 8. The FPS would increase as I shot. I blamed it on too much case volume and position sensitivity.
Haven't tried in 40 yet, don't really want to bother because I'd like to use 1 powder only.
Titegroup- consistent. Temp sensitive. I just shot a match and did not make major due to temp variation between my testing and theirs. I will add .1 gr and live with it, but it's annoying. Also a little smokey with 200gr moly bullets, probably even more with the 40's from what I have seen. Gun gets HOT.
So far I am looking at WST and Solo 1000. Anyone know if Solo is temp sensitive? I believe WST is inverse temp sensitive which scares me because I live in Minnesota. I emailed Accurate with some questions about solo but I won't hear from them for awhile. Any suggestions?
