9mm for CZ

ive loaded up a batch of some shorter and weaker loads.
i didnt measure the oal yet, but i did it based on the chamber (which turned out to only be slightly shorter than i had it set to previously.)
im probably still running at full power, i usually load 4.7grains of hp38 with magnum pistol primers (standard was sold out at the time) ive reduced to standard small pistol primers with 4.4grains.

any comments on the current load of 4.4grains with the 127grain aim projectiles bulled at max length for my chamber?

the 4.7 with magnum primers is what i usually use in my glock... packs a nice punch.
 
I just started reloading so my input is to be taken with a grain of salt... but I've been using S&B 124gr factory ammo for a while and measured it at 1.150" COL. Feeds well and has been working good for competition so far. I just made up a hundred Campro 124gr, 4.0gr titegroup, cci pistol primers, and 1.138" COL. Hopefully try them out this week in my Shadow and see how they work. I figured anything shorter then the S&B factory loads has to feed..
 
I am having difficulty with making power factor with Campro 147 gr. Bullets. does anyone have any recommendations for this bullet with any of these powders:
hp38,n320, longshot, WSF, Bullseye.
every load I have tried does not seem to chrony at enough speed to make power factor without loading to max load or very close. I am hesitant to run max loads and prefer ro run in the mid range of a load.
I am using a CZ 75 Shadow and seating them to 1.140
example :
n320 Start load 3.1 gr. to max 3.9 gr. I have loaded 3.8 gr. at 1.140 to get only 825 ft/sec. . I am getting similar results with all these powders.
by the way the VV site recommends 1.142 as the oal for this weight bullet.
My CZ is a new gun and I am trying to figure out a good load for it with these bullets.
I also shoot lead bullets and have absolutely no problem loading them to power fact at low to midrange powder loads.
Any advise would be welcome.
