WSF in .40 S&W?

[heyrosco]

Interested in any comments regarding Winchester Super Field in .40. Anyone tried it? Was it good or bad? Looking for loads to make major power factor with 180 gr FMJ. The data looks good, but thought I'd ask before I try and reinvent the wheel. Thanks.

I've used it for years and it is a good .40 S&W powder, loaded slow for practice or up to IPSC major.
I've had no problems with it, it is also quite clean burning.

Softer than Tight Group...

5.6 Grains WSF
180gr Montana Gold FMJ
Winchester Magnum SPP
1.130 O.A.L

Makes major in my Para P16-40 Ltd.

I like Tight Group as well... a little more snap than WSF...

4.7 Grains Tight Group
180gr Montana Gold FMJ
Winchester Magnum SPP
1.125 O.A.L

AS ALWAYS YMMV... DON'T TRUST THIS DATA...!! START 10%+/- BELOW STATED CHARGE WEIGHT AND WORK YOUR WAY UP... NOT ALL GUNS ARE THE SAME...
