Starting load recommendations for production

In my shadow 2 I load:

124 Campro/LOA 1.135/3.9 grains Titegroup
147 Campro/LOA 1.115/3.2 grains Titegroup

Ive noticed some other posts suggest Clays as a good powder.Be very careful loading this in 9mm,pressure can get out of hand very easily,its certainly not a powder for the new reloader.
 
I've been using 147 Campros with 3.7 grns CFE powder in a Glock 17
and 3.9 grns in an FNS 9L.
Interestingly, the shorter barrel Glock produces higher fps then the longer barrel FNS with the same number of grns.

I ran the same OAL as I did with the Vhit, and it was the same weight (3gr) Same disclaimer; start a little lower and work up using a chrono to check.

I worked up a load using N310 but found the lighter loads with 147 Campro would give poor accuracy. That was in the 900fps range. I worked up to great accuracy but became quite snappy at 969 fps. Now I think I will try Titegroup.
 
I run TG, and in 20 years when I run out of it, I'll switch to 320, I prefer the 320 over the 310.
For TG I load between 3.2 and 3.3gr depending on the lot and how it performs

Crap. You were the reason I was going to go to TG. 320 is a bit slower than 310 so it should not be as snappy. Its close to W321. Which I have a lot of. So confusing.
 
yeah my match ammo in Europe is loaded with 320 and it's sooooooo clean and nice to shoot. I don't know the load offhand, but man it's nice. TG is great, but dirty. 320 is also expensive compared to TG.

Fine !! Going to buy some 320 tomorrow . That was easy.
 
Well, I couldn't find VV 320 locally and out of frustration tried some WW 231 I had lying around. And wow, was I surprised. I worked up a load that gave a PF of 130 in my PM 9 and it was crazy accurate as well as super soft. Much softer than the VV 310 which I found snappy. Probably due to the faster burning rate but there are so many variables. Im comparing loads with no change in springs, so there might be room for improvement. But why. 231 is everywhere, it goes on sale, and it is, did I mention super soft and accurate. Done deal.

We stock it and ship all across Canada. N320 is a great powder.
