Here are a few good practice loads. All velocities are 10-shot averages, my own chrono data, from a short barrel (3.5"):
5.0 gr. Win 231, 115 gr. Win FMJ-RN, CCI 500, any case, 1.135" OAL @ 980 fps (a light load, but it cycles fine; accurate too)
5.1 gr. Win 231, 124 gr. Hornady FMJ-FP, CCI 500, any case, 1095 fps (this load duplicates M882 Ball (9mm NATO) ammo performance from the same gun)
