hi all,
ive google to my hearts content and cannot find any data for what I need. I have aim 147gr RN and WST powder. I cannot for the life of me find any load date for WST. Has anyone worked up any loads that you are willing to share?

thanks in advance
 
All I could find out is that it is a shotgun powder that has a burning rate about
the same as Win231/HP38.
A number of shotgun powders can be used in pistol loads but I could not
find anything for WST in 9mm listed.
 
"...find any load data for WST..." Hodgdon hasn't done any 9mm load developement. (They have for .45 ACP.) Bit faster than Win231 or HP38. Could be that it's just not suitable for 9mm. Contact Hodgdon.
 
Winchester is one of the powder that i have had the longest experiance

Checked my win book, nothing, 6 other powders no WST

if you look at all 6 powders there is empty spots in some powders

Some times a powder does not work in some cases, 9mm could be one of them.
 
For IDPA i tried 3.4 grains of winchester super target with a 147 lead bullet. I was making 135pf.The load felt very soft. So soft i did not like it.
I found 3.8 grains wst with a 125 lead bullet felt better. Ray.
