colt_saa How many grains of Power pistol did you use? I just picked up a HK USP 45, and I plan on loading some 200 grain 45 super rounds with Longshot and Power pistol. Also thinking about picking up a 6 inch ported barrel, I want to hit 1200 fps with the 200 grain and see how the recoil is...

All that i load is 40 s&w, currently I am using Longshot. With Longshot I was able to get a 180gr out of a 9 inch barrel carbine at 1265 average fps, and that was under max load. Works for 165gr also. Autocomp is another good one, CFE is good, 3n37 works, WST is a target powder that you don't...

I was loading 165gn 40s&w with: autocomp cfe pistol and 3n37.

Thanks for the help I just ordered the Speer #14 and Lyman #49 from midway. My Hornady #9 does not have VV 3n37 in it. 6.8gn to 7.2gn for max makes sense considering how the 6gn load performs. I need to pickup a chronograph, that would be a fun tool to play with.

I have loaded the 40 with WST, and that stuff is great. Also have used Bullseye, too much flash Winchester Auto Comp, good stuff CFE, I was loading some 135gn with the max load of 7.8gn those had some kick

I have loaded some 40 s&w using 180gn nosler hp with 6gn of 3N37 They shoot great, but seem to be a little on the light side. The brass ejects fine but not that far. But according to VV the load of 6gn of 3n37 is toward the top of the charge limit 6.2gn being max .40 S&W - Handgun reloading -...

I thought about a single station press to start, but I started with a RCBS pro 2000 progressive and could not be happier with the decision. I separated the seat and crimp to separate stations, way more control over the seat and crimp when they are separate. I do not own a bulge buster. One...

I load 40S&W and use,,,,Nosler Sporting Handgun Bullets 40 S&W, 10mm Auto (400 Diameter) 180 Grain Jacketed Hollow Point. Currently on sale at Midway but on backorder

Powder Valley has 4 lbs of 3N37

Trying to find some load data for a 40S&W, 180 grain Nosler hollow point with WST. Looked around a bit but can't seem to find an exact match anywhere. Has anyone tried this combo? Found on handloads.com A 180 gr jacketed hollow point with the starting point of 4.5gr and a max of 5gr But on...

Autocomp and CFE Pistol

Just came back from the range, and I must say Winchester Super Target is some great powder. I am shooting 40S&W, loaded some 150gr nosler hollow points (gun doesn't like plated) and wow what an accuracy improvement over a lightly loaded CFE Pistol round. Winchester Autocomp came in second...

Looking for an 8 pounder of Winchester Autocomp

"xtreme, when they have free shipping. " I will second that

I had the same problem with my RCBS progressive, the primer would stick to the pin and get drawn about half way back up into the primer pocket. Federal brass was the most trouble.
