Antipitas, thanks for sticky reminder.

I gathered my max reload point from Alliant Powder's web site which is 8.2gr max for a 125 FMJ and also my Lee Die set data sheet which stops Max at 8.2gr for the 125 FMJ. The bullet weight on my test run was 124.2gr to 125.1gr. I grouped them by weight.

Looking into my references, I never got to max load @ 8.0gr on my hottest test run.

After the "discovery" on my part of finding no published data on a 135gr 9mm loads and then making the true discovery of the real bullet weight, I thought I would pass my load finds to others that had bought this bargain :-)
