![]() ![]() But what you are seeing is that Titegroup is a fast powder and that isn't necessarily the best option for 9mm. There are some loads listed on the Hodgdon website. I won't use a powder with the possibility of a double charge of powder. Typical loads come up to the base of a seated bullet or even lightly compressed. The nice thing about Unique for me is that with typical charges there is NO WAY that a case could be double charged. I do see several discussions in searches where people do use Titegroup in 9MM. A chronograph helps working up powders when specific bullets and powders aren't published. ![]() I seat most 124 FMJ's to 1.150" oal but Winchester 124 FMJ's I seat to 1.160" as they have a more pointed tip shape. I've seen no issues with 5.1 grains with the 124FMJ's in different pistols with various cases but all using CCI 500 primers. ![]() For several different 124 FMJ jacketed and plated round nose bullets I've loaded 4.8 grains of Unique for a milder load and up to 5.1 grains of Unique for more velocity. No experience with Titegroup powder, I use Alliant Unique for 9MM 124 gr. ![]() Also you are reluctant to use others on-line recommendations. Finding proven data in a manual for your bullet choice and powder preference is sometimes not easy. It seems to me the Lyman guide doesn't contain that much on 9mm, which is a bit of shock, I thought it would contain more data. In the Lyman guide I see 115gr JHP and it show Titegroup, I also see that it recommends Power Pistol as the powder of choice, but I don't see any options for 115gr FMJ. Does this mean for for 124gr & 115 gr FMJ that Titegroup is not an option? I want to make sure I understand what this is telling me. The powder that I was thing of using is not listed for the 124gr bullet weight Titegroup, however it is listed for 115gr Lead and 115gr XTP. In the Lee manual I can see 124gr Jacketed Bullet ( I will assume this is equal to FMJ?) and it shows a number of powder options. To get the load data, I went to my Lyman 49th edition page 341 looking for 124gr FMJ, but I don't see any data for it, the only data I see for FMJ is 95gr. To start with I plan to load for the range, I have been shooting 115gr FMJ factory loads, but I would like to hand load 124gr FMJ which is what I have for my SD loads. Hope this helps some others develop some loads.I'm just getting into reloading and I will be starting with 9mm and have some questions on looking up loading data for the 9mm. I tried to make it "view only", if for some reason it does not come across that way please don't edit the document and let me know so I can adjust it. This is my first time posting a link to a google sheets doc. Velocities taken at ~4-5 feet from barrelĪll calculations were done by hand using formulas, please let me know if anything seems off.Īs with any load data posted on the internet, please start testing low and work your way up. This link will be updated as I continue to develop more loads and test them. COAL are generally +/- 0.005" seated using Lee seating die. Powder is generally +/- 0.1 gr as it dropped using a Hornady powder drop on my Dillon xl650(although usually right at the listed charge). These loads were tested using my Caldwell Ballistic Precision Chronograph Premium Kit. The loads highlighted in yellow are those that I found work best for me. I'm hoping this data may help some others that are looking for some data with Titegroup powder. I have been putting together some load data for some of the loads I use commonly. ![]()
