I just started reloading last summer so I am still trying different bullets and powders and still learning.
Looking in the 'Speer Reloading Manual #14' for .45Auto, 230gr. TMJ-RN they list 7.0 to 8.1gr of PowerPistol at 1.26 OAL.
For 230gr. GoldDot-HP they list only 6.3 to 7.4gr of PowerPistol at 1.20 OAL.
I'm wondering why the big difference in powder loads?
The 230gr. bullets I am loading are the Hornaday XTP-HP. Is the Speer data good for the XTP bullets?
Any recommendations or pet loads for .45Auto or 9mm Luger useing BlueDot or PowerPistol powder.
How about Titegroup or Universal for .45auto or 9mm?
.45s will be used in a 1911.
9mm will be used in CZ75 SPO1. No Glocks.
Thanks For Your Time.
