OAL for 124gr FP 9mm Ranier
What are you guys using for OAL length for this, and what powder charge have you found to be the most accurate with 231? Any input would be appreciated.

I load these bullets to 1.130 in length. I do not use 231 despite my having tons of it. I have yet to get an acceptable load in anything using it. I load 5.5 grs Unique and get groups at 1" at 25 yds out of my Baby Eagle.

If you want a nice light plinkin round, Go with 3.3 gr Bullseye with a Min oal of 1.150 Otherwise for your Win 231 go with 3.3 gr start and 4.0 Max with a Min. oal of 1.095 Hope this helps.
