Yes! Fills the case very well. Able to shoot compressed loads with it so it keeps the bullets from setback. Burns clean and is accurate.

Thanks. I'll grab some.

You are welcome. It's what I use with the Xtreme since it's a lil lower velocity than the other two powders. Keeps them from going too fast and losing the accuracy node in my gun.

Can't find any AA#9 locally. They are out of stock in both locations. Would power pistol be the better choice over longshot for xtreme 124gr fp? Plan to use Longshot for Speer gold dots.

Both of those should be fine, just start on the low end and see how they do and work up looking for the velocity node.

I will. What's a good velocity for 357 Sig just in general? 1350?

Most factory ammo runs around that area. But factory stuff is loaded down for safety in all guns. I've pushed the Xtreme past that but accuracy fades once the plated get too fast. The XTP and Gold Dots I've pushed up to a little over 1,500 fps. I keep my Xtreme loads for plinking and they do well around the 1,300 fps range, give or take a few.

Got it. I'll let you know how it goes. Should be working on them in the next week or so.
