So this is my first batch of reloading I'm doing. Brass has been tumbled, deprimed, cleaned the primer pockets and now primed. What I'm wondering about now, is the powder charge to use. I've checked my Lee book and it makes no mention of Unique in their recipes. I checked Alliant's website and they only list 3, and only one of which are for 115 grain bullets, and it only has one powder charge, no min or max. I'm a bit confused, I'm using Unique powder, Winchester primers, and Berry's bullets 115grain round nose copper plated.
It's also got me thinking as it says barrel length on Alliant's recipes, do I have to adjust for each length of barrel I use? I'm using an LC9 and I was wondering if that was just to achieve the listed velocity or whether your powder charge change based on the barrel length?
Should I be going by the OAL they list on their recipe as well? 1.125"?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
