I finally found a load that shoots worth two cents.
I can't get unique consistant. (It's GREAT in my .45)
Same with bullseye. (Good cowboy load in .45 colt, too!)
On a internet web page , somebody recommended HS-7, and I just tried it.
My load:
8 grains HS-7, bullet meister 125 grain .356 hard cast lead, CCI 500 primer, WIN cases, prepped as above.
Shoots good enough for me to stop trying other powders for 9mm.
Doesn't feel like a 9mm, it's spooky.
Actually, it feels a lot like weak loads in my bird's head vaquero .45 colt!!
