Getting ready to order powder.
My current favorite for 9mm 125s @ around 1030-1050 is WSF.
Perfectly happy with WSF and it's not broke but I need to fix it anyway
I have went with faster powders but prefer the feel of WSF or something around that speed.
Bullseye and Titegroup faster burn speed wise than I am looking for
HP38/W231 worked well for me but not as good as WSF.
AA#2 Shoots well, but close to MAX loads (which is ok) to make 130 PF. (also I save it for the .380 and .45)
Unique, shoots decent (in lots of things), meters poorly, have used, not a option if I can get something else.
Universal, shot really well for me with cast/coated bullets, not quite as plated/jacketed
Power Pistol, shot decent, meters decent, flashy not a option if I can get something else.
BE86, one of 9mms liked it the other three for some reason didn't, while they never completely agree,
they need to all play well with the load, prefer it to Unique or PP but not a option if I can get something else.
CFE-P and Silhouette, both shot well for me but to get the best shooting load I needed to be cloaser to say 1080 fps
I am going to try a lb of 244 and a lb of Sport Pistol, and was thinking one more flavor maybe N330 or BA9.
Main use would be 9mm with 125s @ about 130 PF.
N330 is pricy about $12-$15 50% more than others but then bullets are a larger cost than powder.
Your thoughts on BA9 or N330 would be appreciated.
(almost afraid to try N330 since I think my one pistol might be female and likes expensive things)
Also any input on either of the 2 in .45 would be appreciated, but my .45s seem happier with something AA#2/HP38 speed. (need to try WST in .45, one the list, but playing with 9mm at the moment)
Both of those are single base one of the reasons I picked those two.
Miss 7625 and 4756 sigh.........
