    First time for 9mm

    I need positive input please. My books have no reloading data for copper platted bullets for reloading 9mm. I have lots of Unique powder I’d like to use if I can. Using 115 gr round nose xtream bullets from Wess.
    Please and thank you.

    Use full range lead data. Or low to mid range jacketed data

    The lowest data I have is for 1150 FPS. Is that low enough? Or how low do you go?

    Start at the lowest and work your way up. is what I've always been told you have to find what you're gun likes and not have signs of overpressure.

    Ive never used that combo, but just looked at several different resources. Some books say 4.5-5.5gr and others say 5.0-6.0gr. One even listed a max charge of 6.3gr. These were all with jacketed bullets. I don’t know if that helps.

    I've loaded thousands of Berrys 115 grain plated with 5.6 grains of Unique and am quite pleased with the load. They chronograph on average 1080 out of a Glock 19. Your results may vary but I've never seen any indication of over pressure.

    When you come up with something, post it up here and get another opinion.

    I promise you that someone will help. 9MM is VERY popular.

    I also use titegroup.
