+P data is about the only time I've seen #7 listed. 45 ACP it's harder to find a powder that gives such high case fill while having an optimum burn. I consider this when making some defense loads, but for. Might have even been slightly compressed. There was 1 load, maybe more, with #7 that gave 100% load density, meaning that it completely filled the available cartridge space. I wish I knew where to find it because Accurate's ballistician, before Western bought them, sent me +P data for both #5 & #7. 45 ACP to compare to W231 and ZIP.īut, to keep things simple by using a single powder, AA#5 is a very good choice. I'm also very interested in trying AA#2 for a good number of different loads in. 45 ACP to help make up for the shortage of True Blue. I've been using it for JHP loads in 9 x 19mm and. Not many better when it comes to loading as many calibers as possible with a single powder. When I opened the 4# jug I was surprised to see that it is very similar in color to WST, light #5 is a very good all-around powder that is very flexible. I'll only be using it with cast and poly-coated bullets for target loads.

JHP (not Golden Saber), there aren't many better, if any, than AA#7.īut, to keep things simple by using a single powder, AA#5 is a very good I'll update once I try it. If you want higher velocity for defense type loads with the 147 gr. I started using it a good many years ago when the news of Blue Dot having lot variation issues became known.

#9 is very underrated when it comes to loading full power. There aren't a lot of Accurate pistol powders, but I like all of those I've used to include #7 & #9. Buying bulk powder to use across 3 calibers is another.Ĭlick to I'll update once I try it. Reloading is one way to make that more affordable. We like to shoot as much as we can we don't spare the ammo. I'm confident #5 is going to work in the 45 ACP as well. Say's it has less flip than white box 115 grain. I've dialed in a 9mm/147 grain load for my son too use in IDPA with #5. I've never tried anything other than #2 and #5. I think it runs cleaner than most commercial ammo too. Let the press set 2 months and open a new can of powder still the same drop weight. I can check the powder drop at the first load and after 1,000 loads and it's always the same weight. I don't really have an explanation for my loyalty to Accurate Powders other than when I bought my used Dillon Square Deal, it came with 2 pounds of #5. I had started at 6.8 but it cycled slow and failed to feed once. I loaded a bunch of 230 grain RN with 7.5 grains of #5 before switching the press to SWC. My goal is simply to cycle the gun(s) and place it in an 8" circle for IDPA.

Two seperate but overlapping parts of how the gun functions.Īs long as your choice of powder/charge weight is between the two ends of the range and your round has the right external dimensions your good.For this trial I used 7.8 grains of Accurate #5. Not enough power to cycle causes feed issues (slide not going back far enough to eject, pick up the next round, or lock back), too much power causes frame battering and stress (frame peening or slide cracks). Or you can work up a load that reduces recoil, 5.4 grains of Powder U is 850 fps with a 230 grain LRN, 5.1 grains will reliably cycle the gun reducing recoil (Bullseye pistol logic).įor most semiauto pistols round dimensions are part of how the round feeds. For example, 5.5 grains of powder X gives 1272 rounds per pound and powder Y has a 5 grain weight giving you 1400 rounds (IPSC/IDP logic). High volume shooters will look for the lightest charge weight with the best velocity for their round. If using one die then turn the body down on the factory case then the seating stem.Īs far as the load goes, you can change primers and powder type and weight for load data. (if crimping seperately) until it hits the fatory brass. Make sure the die is off the case before you start and run the seating die down until it hits the bullet then run the crimp die I set my dies like that before I was able to measure length on them. 25 February 2012, 19:24 SamIf you can feed the factory length round, you can use a factory round to set your seating die.
