9 MM Luger... 147 grain coated bullet recipes...

[leroy]

Brothers n Sisters...

Am gettin ready to reload some 9mm for the first time in a long time... Ive ordered some 147 grain coated pills and would like to see about 950 to 1000 fps from them...  Im thinkin that the AA published data will get ya there with AA#7.   Does anyone else have any recipes they like for Unique or Blue Dot... My guess for Unique is 900 ish... Blue Dot would probably hit the 1000 mark.  These will be shot thru a glock 19 and a ruger charger pistola...

Thanks a bunch...

I'm currently shooting 147 gr Hoosier Hi-Tek coated bullets using 3.5 grs American Select and these run around 900 fps. (The bullets are $78.00/1000 as I type this.)

My load data log says I've chronoed 147 gr lead (Falcon bullets) at 880 fps using 3.9 grs Unique.

AmSel is my favorite powder for 147 gr 9mm. Very accurate rounds with a nice recoil impulse.

What coated bullets are you using btw?
