Anyone have a pet 9mm target load......

I never thought I'd be asking this being a confirmed .45 guy, but does anyone have a pet bullet, pet accurate load for 9mm. Lead bullets would be nice as well. I've got a new target level 9mm that I would like to wring out.

When considering US based operations of guides/outfitters, check and see if they are NRA members. If not, why support someone who doesn't support us? Consider spending your money elsewhere.

NEVER, EVER book a hunt with BLAIR WORLDWIDE HUNTING or JEFF BLAIR.

I have come to understand that in hunting, the goal is not the goal but the process.

I use 6gr. of Unique and 115gr. bullets. This load works well in a couple different box stock Smiths.
Peter is the guy to to contact about 9m/m's.

My pet plinking load is a 115 gr copper plated round nose with 4.8 gr of W231. Does great out of my wife's S&W M&P9 and my Shield.

I have been loading six grains of AA #5 behind my own hard cast 125s for about 20 years now. Extremely accurate and easy on the wrists...

The only difference I would consider is 4.7 gr Win231/Hp38. This the load I use for USPSA Production class.

I found that 4.6 grains of W231 is light and accurate for the (my) 92FS. But use a lee dipper I shaved down to scoop approx/ 5.2 - 5.4 grains of Unique. After all they're only 9's.
