9mm & WST

[nikatkimber]

I need some data now! I got a pound of WST, now I need to start loading some rounds up.

Currently have 124gr cast, 125gr CMJ, and 147gr FMJ. If anyone can help me with some starting loads it would be greatly appreciated!

I'm using 4.0 grains of WST with a 147gr plated Berry's Bullet loaded to 1.014 OAL for an avarage of 908fps (133 pf) out of my H&K P-30. That what you're looking for?

Holy elephant dung that is short for a 147gr bullet. Are you sure you don't mean 1.14"?

Nikat, Ryan loads WST. PM him. He's more likely to help you if you include naked pictures so I would do that if I were you.

He told me I was the only one getting the nekkid special! Are you telling me you got it too?

I'm really hurt over this...

3.6 for the 147s and 4.4 for the 125s should get you close. And poop is right, don't even try 1.014".

Edit: I just saw you had 147 jacketed. I use that with lead so it will likely take more to make PF. Start at 3.6 and be careful!

I'm traveling out of state right now so I can't measure the bullets and took the OAL from one of last year's log entry. Will check when I get home.

1.014 is too short im around 1.135 with the 147 flat nose from J&K

I'm the same with Power Pistol.

I'm just about the same with 3.2gr of Bullseye.

PS Nikat if you really enjoy cleaning guns you should run Bullseye with cast lead.

Thanks Scott!

I'm running Bullseye now with cast lead in .38s.
