9mm What's your favorite powder and projectile?

My two favorite lead bullet loads for my 9's are 4.1 gr's of 231 with a cast Ideal 121 gr. (usually around 124 g based on my lead mix). This shoots great in my Beretta CX-4 Carbine. 100% cycling, no leading.
My favorite pistol load is 4.5 gr's of Unique with the same Ideal bullet.
Both these loads are subject to change shortly unless I can find more of either powder. I have some Tite Group, Bullseye and Green Dot on hand when my 231 and Unique are gone.
This current powder situation is getting ridiculous...
 
Here's one for the list, if you're keeping a list of powders that are useable for 9mm - Blue Dot is very nice with 147 grainers

I agree. It gives you tremendous ability to knock down steel even on marginal hits compared to 124s with faster-burning powders.

My most commonly-used load is 3.7 grains of 700X pushing a 124 grain AIM Projectile.
