9mm load data

[matt86]

Anyone have a recommendation for 9mm using Berry's 115gr and titegroup?

If thats the plated stuff, the charge can likely be somewhat reduced than for fmj. I use hardcast bullet load data to load plated and you need to keep velocity below the max which in the case of berry 9mm plated is 1250.
Start at or near the bottom of the load data with a small batch and if it cycles the pistol well and is accurate you can stay with that for targets.


Hodgdons titegroup 115gr 9mm says start at 3.9 for lrn max is 4.3 http://data.hodgdon.com/cartridge_load.asp

Power Pistol is accurate, but I don't get good accuracy with any plated bullet.
A light load (2.6-3.5gn) of TiteGroup can be accurate, with jacketed bullets.
For general shooting, 231/HP38 is very good--accurate, meters well, not expensive, does not have pressure spike issues like Clays, N310, and TG.

Just to clarify -- 5.0gn and 6.0gn of Power Pistol has been very good with 115 and 124gn bullets in my 9x19s.

When loading light loads, TiteGroup has not been very accurate for me or several others that I shoot with. It works great when loaded for standard velocities.
