any body have any data on 9mm lead 147gr besides WSP

well i guess the title says it all i swaged up some 147gr slugs I wanted to see how they did. but I dont have any winchester WSF powder anyone have anything else in their load data?

I think i will try a charge of IMR SR 4756 intended for Jacketed bullets maybe reduce it a grain or two. see what happens that should be a pretty mild load im really not wanting anything hot just wanted to see how the 9mm did with a little heaver lead slug

I was going to suggest if you had a load for a jacket round close to that weight to reduce it and test it out. For some reason, the kids likes to read my books and I can not locate a single reloading book anywhere in the house....

oh just noticed my title should say WSP lol

well i went ahead and used 4 grains of IMR SR4756 It did pretty good. shot very consistent groups all about 10" low but grouped nicely. No pressure Issues. Not sure if i like my lube though Maybe I will break down and try liquid alox I don't have any hanging lead but it left some color on my rifling.

What are you going to try next?

dont know i want something that i can pan lube with because i dont want to size

thinking maybe i should just up the charge of 4756 it was a very mild load dont think im pushing the lead too hard at all

Do you have a cannuler tool? If you do, one might be able to put a cannuler in there deep enough to accept lube. Now if you have knurler, and your knurling your swaged 9's, I'd say try some liquid alox. You can always shine the nose back up after seated in the case and no one will know that it was a varnish color...Just a thought...

I am working on getting some ingrediants, I have a lead on 10 pound cake of alox and I have some beeswax, toying around with making some lube. Melt some of the alox cake down to have pure alox to lube with...

Yea I Corbins HCT-2 Knurling tool. what Ive been using for lube is Paraffin Vaseline stp and i use a wax toilet bowl gasket ... they used to be made of bees wax but now they are mircocrystalline wax it should do good maybe i should put some lithium grease in there but Ive heard that it dosen't like to blend well.

Yea I forget when they changed the toilet bowl ring. I have some lithibee lube that I had made up. If you like, I could send you some to try out. It worked great for my cast boolits. Hardly no smoke at all. Mohunter uses it as well and likes it. I know use some carnuba red but getting ready to make some NRA lube. I use a lubrisizer now and don't pan lube anymore. Pan lubing was fun, yet I got tired of having to relube when the lube comes out of the lube groove. So now there is no wait, just sit on sizer pull handle boom finished and ready to load boolits. Makes life simpler. Now, I got a good deal on the lubrisizer or I might not have one right now..

well ive thought about a lubrisizer maybe keep the sizing ring a thou larger than my boolits. I would imagine that the knurl would take the lube ok. prolly liquid alox from lee is going to be my best bet. But I'm llike Mo its just plane ole nasty.
