9mm reloads?
just got a 9mm S&W mp shot some Federal 115gr factory loads this morning.
What is your favorite loads factory or reloads.
I have a box of Sierra 125gr FNJ going to try 4 grains of bullseye WSR primers.
Any thoughts Welcome, The 9mm is new to me.

My standard load is 5 grains of Unique with 124 grain Hornady XTP bullets and CCI primers.

That load works very well with my M&P Shield, Sig-P239, Sig-P6 (a decades old West German Border patrol version of the P-225) and Sig M11-A1 (a fancy P-229).

Two major loads for 9x19 for me.

First is my usual pistol competition load - 147 grain bullet (coated lead tc) and 3.3 grains of titegroup.

115 grain JHP of choice and a max load of AA#7.

Depends on what it’s for as to the choice of load (my actual AA7 load is over their max, but the 3 guns I use it in shoot it much better than the official max load.)

Thanks .. Bullets are hard to find around this area, I have a 1000 ordered from Extreme just have not got them.
I think I might get a mold 6 cav lee. 124gr and cast my bullets thinking about 12 BHN..
any load info for that combination would be helpful.
ill Try the Unique as well. Ill chase down some load data

Thanks Dave
