let's talk reloading 9mm subs.

I load Hornady 124 gr FMJ and Rainier 147 gr lead copper plated bullets with Ramshot Silhouette. They cycle flawlessly and I run them over the chrono to perfect my load. I only use the silhouette because that's all I can find locally in the 4 lb kegs. If I ever find Ramshot True Blue or Ramshot Zip, I will give that a try in 9mm.

Your sing you can load 124gr subs? I'm trying to figure how cheap I can make them and if it's worth buying a co version kit for my reloader. I may hold off and see how often I shoot it.

If cost is your concern here is an example, using 3.1gr of Bullseye with a coated 147 I get 905fps out of a G17, at a cost of less than $0.12 each (I say less than because I did not pay $25 per pound for powder). Range pickup brass, not paying for my time, and not amortizing equipment. 124s would be fractions of a cent less. TG gives very similar results.

Factory AE124 chronos 1050 fps from a 4" P07.

Yes I was loading the 124 gr to 1070 FPS from a Glock 17. The 124 actually cost more than the 147 gr plated bullets, but I bet you could find 124 gr that a plated for less than the 147's
