Titegroup vs N320

Either one will work fine.
N320 will probably burn cleaner, and will be hard to double charge since it's a bulky powder, but tends to be more expensive and sometimes hard to find.
Titegroup is very economical and can usually be found in stock for reasonable prices. Burns a little dirtier, and need to be careful of double charges.

I went to N320 several years ago across the board for 9mm… over 40,000 rounds later it’s the only powder I use for minor calibers.
VV burns WAY cleaner than tight group which is a very significant factor when it comes to how often and how much time you spend cleaning competition pistols that see lots of rounds.
N320 is EXTREMELY consistent over the chrono although that is not an issue with tightgroup. Both are very trusted powders.
I would say the main reason to switch is obvious based on how dirty tightgroup burns alone, that said buy whatever you can get in today’s climate.

This. I load on D550 and have accidentally thrown a double charge once. Thanks to low density of N320, the case was nearly full, and it was caught right away.
Tried 115, 124, 147 Campro at 132-134 PF, prefer 124 as the gun cycles faster than with 147.

Early on I was trying to decide if I should go with N320 or TG but ultimately went with TG due to availability.

I (and a lot of the locals here) have been shooting 147s with N310 for years. Sooooo soft.
Not gonna list the recipe since Vhit won't list it on their website but I will say it makes minor; the pressure is safe, its clean (it's vhit) and it meters amazing - very consistent loads.
Keep this general equation in mind; softest shooting non-comp = heaviest bullet with fastest powder that doesn't blow pressure levels.
There's only one other powder listed faster than N310 on most of the burn rate charts.
