Bookmark or Share- 180 & 200 gr. xtp & longshot load data needed - Glock TalkI Know better, Benchrst. It was confirmed 5 or more years ago that 800x was the most efficient powder for 165gr. & below, and longshot was for 180 & 200. AA9 is very good also, but won't quite measure for full power like longshot. I still have a keg of 800x which gets me 1230-1240 with the 200gr. safely and with good precision.

- Best 10mm powder, lowest pressure with highest velocity?Longshot is a good powder as well, but one must venture a good ways beyond book data to get velocities up to #9 performance. A lot of folks do, and they have good results. I have not pushed longshot that far. 800-x and longshot are closely matched. 800-x does not meter, so i find no reason to chose it over longshot.
- Reloading the Glock 42 - Glock TalkThe powder market (All reloading supplies) are volatile to say the least in today's political climate... Back in the 70's/80's every sporting goods store had shelves full of just about any powder you wanted. Even through the 90's I rarely had to look too far to find the powders we needed. 4 and 8# canisters were available.
- 44 Special Skeeter load using Winchester 231 - Glock TalkI kept adding powder until I came close to the standard. I will spare you all the data and go straight to my new load for hollow points. I get with 7.0 grains of Winchester 231 an average of 918 fps for 4” barrel and 1021 fps for 5.5” barrel.
