natmil.com shows pistol powder ( NR-485) at a good price. They claim it is similar to titegroup. Anyone tried it?
 
Finally tried some. i think it is a bit slower than titegroup. here are some results

158 Zero SWCHP, 1.460 from a 4" Model 10
3.6 Gr NR-485 706,719,694,713,695,706 AVG 705 ES 25 SD 9.8


40 S&W 165 Zero JHP 1.120 XD40 4"
5.0 NR-485 H 946 L 931 Avg 938

40 170 Precision Black bullet 1.120
4.5 NR-485 898,903,899,927,900 AVG 905 ES 29 SD 12
 
The problem with surplus powders is they are limited availability. I bought 8# of NM-13 from Jeff Bartlett several years ago. It was advertised as Chinese made and used Green Dot data. I loaded thousands of rounds of 45 and 9mm with it, loved it. Now I am out and none has been available for years. Try to find Green Dot as well.
If you like it, buy twice as much as you think you will need.

Yea, thats is my plan. I have 10 pounds, I plan on buying another 10. That should cover my practice / range ammo for a while. I can save my power pistol / bullseye / W231 for when I really need it. maybe by the time I use this up, all this power not being available nonsense will be over
