9mm and 452AA powder.

[DaveF]

I was given a 6lb. keg of Winchester 452AA powder and as I don't own a shotgun right now, am looking for some suggested loads in 9mm Parabellum using both 115 and 125gr. bullets, both jacketed and cast.
I also intend to use it in 45ACP, but have found suggested loads for that.
Thanks, DaveF.

I ran that powder with 124/5gr. cast bullets years ago.
My records show a charge of 4.3gr.
and a pulled bullet showed 4.2gr

I'd start about 4gr. and not exceed 5 gr.

452AA is the same as Hodgdon Trap 100, and my old Hodgdon #24 manual shows a max load of 4.6gr of Trap 100


Good luck

Many thanks Lefty ####.
I dug out my old Hogdon manual, and there are lots of loads listed there for Trap 100, from .32ACP all the way up through .45ACP.
Thanks again, DaveF.
