Which Powder? - Page 2

Mentor or tormentor?
We loaded your shells with Unique. I thought maybe you shot them and didn't like it. Bullseye is a good powder just quicker than Unique, making it harder to spot a light or double charge.

Have you had any luck with Promo and 200 grn. lswc's? I'm looking for a light clean target load.

I'm a bullseye guy too. It's filthy, but it's fast burning and accurate.

I am using 4.7gr titegroup, (.40 auto-disk on a Lee reloader) works great for me. titegroup works nicely for 9mm, .40cal and .45acp.

Shooterwolf--- I usually load 5gr of PROMO under a 230cast lead bullet. Kinda stiff, but accurate in my guns. A decent starter load for a 200gr bullet might be similar to my regular loading and you could work up(or down) from there.
