1st 9mm loads on target.

I loaded these using a powder measure to meter 4.3 grains of Titegroup.

With the exception of the two sighters on the left that is a great group...









Seriously great job there.

I'm not much of a shot with any gun so it doesn't reflect much on the pistol or ammo. I was happy just to get them to cycle through the gun.

Congrats! Loaded up my first 9mm last week also.. worked a ladder up to 6.0 gr of Power Pistol under a 115 gr Remington FMJ, OAL of 1.110 based on measuring factory Remington UMC rounds. Mine functioned flawlessly once I got to 5.6 grains, I think I'll stay at 6.0, my accuracy is where I want it and everything works well

Good, but accuracy is not something one can judge well at 15 feet.
Have fun.

Where did you get that form from that shot at? I have not seen that before and would like to get some for my reloads.

The target is one I made up on the computer. I have several variations.

Does Power Pistol feed well through a powder measure?

Yes, both my powder measures throw accurate charges with PP, one is a Dillon on the loader, the other is a stand alone RCBS powder measure.

I am also doing 9mm right now with titegroup, I have had a much better experience using less powder, you should try some at 3.5gr and go up from there. I stick with 3.8 now for the best accuracy for myself.
