Hey fellas,

Been loading for little over a year now w/approx 5000 down range. Really familiar and comfortable with my machine and have been reading until my eyes go cross. Looking for advice before I load up my next batch.

I have a bunch of 147 & 124 grain Xtreme bullets. Been loading the 147's w/3.4 grains of Solo 1000, 1.10 OAL with pretty good results. Now wanting to play with accuracy, different powders and try loading up some of my 124's.

Here's the powder that I have to test: Solo 1000, W231, WST (new), Bullseye and should have a bottle of titegeoup in the next few days. I've read mixed reviews on the WST, read that titegeoup is dirty......etc.

If anyone out there has experience loading with any or several of these powders with 124 Xtremes, I would appreciate your input and recipe. Thanks in advance!

WST is what I use for 9, 40, and 45. I'm sure there are better powders for 9, but I'm lazy and it's nice to use the same powder on all of the pistol calibers I load.

I use 3.5 gr WST for 124's and 3.4 gr for 147's.
 
I use WIN 231 for 9mm. I am getting 1030fps with 3.6 grains behind my cast and powder coated 125 grain bullets. Meters well in the Dillon
 
I use 3.9 grains of WST with 124 grain Xtreme plated bullets, 1.30 OAL. Great results from myself(actually my kid) and my customers. You could use a bit less, but run the risk of not making power factor in hot weather. 200k+ downrange

This is exactly what I'm looking for. Thank you and thank you to everyone else who has replied so far.
