anyone try BE86 with 9mm coated , I have some acme 124gr wondering how be86 does with coated ,
I have used be86 with plated and had good results but thinking of trying it with the coated lead acme 124 gr 9mm
thinking of 5gr to start ?
Thanks all
 
I've tested it with the Lee TL356-124-2R from 5.0g to 5.6g and 5.0g is plenty. I average 1140 fps out of a 5" Baretta 92fs and 1230 fps with 5.6g and 1215 fps with a 4.25" M&P 9.
 
Those 5.6 gr are screaming pretty good,
At the 5gr with plated I was around 1040 I believe chrono readings are written down at home,
 
5.2 gr BE-86 with 124 gr polycoated CRN from Eggleston Munitions at 1.12" OAL.

From a 4.75" M&P - Avg 1140 fps, ES 14, SD 6.
