9mm 124gr. Gold Dots + Longshot

kjshank1 · July 12, 2008, 09:13 AM

I have some 124gr gold dots that I want to load with longshot. Does anyone have data for that, I haven't been able to find it yet. Thanks in advance for your help.

Go to the Hodgdon Powder website.
Download the 2008 Hodgdon manual.
Scroll over to the 9mm pistol.
They have 3 loads published for Longshot.
There ya go.
By the way, Longshot is published in a Bunch of
different handgun loads. I'm starting to think about
this powder myself.

I loaded some 155 grain XTP's in 40 S&W with longshot, 9 grains, gave me 1270 fps on the chrono, outta my XD. These smoke the factory loads, approach 600 ft/lbs energy. Longshot rocks.

I use Longshot in 40 S&W. I use Rainier 165gr plated hollow points over 7.5gr of powder. Accurate and clean, I love Longshot for 40 cal.
