Mild 9mm power pistol loads?
Can any anyone with a chronograph share some info with me?
I'm looking for a 124gr 9mm load for Power Pistol in the 1050 fps range. (Beretta 4.7 bbl) 5.7 grains felt pretty good, but I've no idea how fast... All the official loads are max, but backing off the max works great in .40, so why not in the 9? (BTW, 6.0 gr. of PP is .40 perfection) Weshoot, this is tailor made for you, but I've taken up too much of your time already I feer... Thanks in advance!

(LAUGHINGLY)
As I wander the 'net at 04:19 I ask myself, "How fast does HIS pistol fire 5.7g PP?"
My 4.5" pistols give about 1100fps with 6.0g (one faster, one slower), so I say your 5.7g load may be giving you exactly what you want. (That 6.0g in 40 IS perfect isn't it?)

I thought you'd get a kick out of that question.
I know I need a chrony, still working on that. Thanks again.
