Your favorite powder for 9mm

[Slavex]

used tons of 231, but now I use Tightgroup. I find it to be more consistent, and cleaner burning.

I use Herco - bought 5 pounds of it @10.00 each as a clearance powder at a local store a couple of years back - I should have bought all of it. I found it produces amazing velocities in .45 ACP and is usefull in 38 spl., 9mm, 45 colt, etc.) meters like Unique, but just a littler slower burn rate. Flake type powder is not too bad to dispense if you use it in a quality measure (i.e.: do not use in Lee craptacular measures). Not so dirty as to bother me. Did I say amazing velocities?

HS-6 here. 4.7gr with a 147 gr cast lead.

I'm just starting to load 9mm and am planning on using 700x. It meters great in my lee measure and I found it really clean and great performance in my .38 spec.

I use bullseye for my 125 grain lead. I have found my rounds quite accurate but the stuff is dirty, dirty, dirty. I use titegroup for my 147 grain CMJ loads.

Another vote here for Titegroup, at least once I run out of WAP and 452AA.

I finished off a pound of W231 (took a couple of years) and I found some IMR 4756 for $ 16.00 a lb. Old Stock I guess.

So far, the 4756 burns decently and cleanly. I'll wait for the warmer weather to chronograph this load.

Cheers,
Barney

Either W231 or Bullseye. Bullseye seems to work well for me, but as has been said: dirty, very dirty.

I've got a bunch of 800X that seems to work not bad.

 

[waynesixgun]

I like Unique and Universal.

 

[Ritchie]

Hs6 here too. 6.4 Gr behind frontier 124 plated.

 

[Canuck44]

Been using Unique and 231 but am going to give Titegroup a try.

Take Care
