You mean Titewad, not Titegroup, right? I haven't seen any pistol data using Titewad but a lot of the IPSC/IDPA guys swear by Accurate/Scot S1000 which is also a shotgun powder. It looks like Titewad is a very fast powder so you might have trouble making the power factor (>1009 fps) with that bullet. A 147gr might work but I'd still be worried about a possible pressure spike.
If you are starting out, I'd suggest picking up a lb. of Titegroup and try running 4-4.2gr. It's a cheap, clean powder that lots of competitive shooters use and more importantly there is official load data from a lot of reputable sources for that combo.
Even TightGroup has it's issues. It smokes so much the guys with compensators look like steam engines running around. It's also a very hot powder and, from what I've read, not a great one to use with lead... which makes even more smoke.
For an easy push try something along the speeds of 231, HP38 or N330.
W231 w/ 4.2-4.4gr seemed to have less recoil than Titegroup but to me it also seemed a tad bit dirtier. Maybe I'm crazy. I don't have a chronograph so it's hard to do a real comparison. I haven't tried N330 but W231 and Titegroup meter better than N320.
The best “minor” 9mm load I have shot (and currently use) is 3.1 of VV N310 with Berry’s 147 loaded to 1.160”. With the same 147 3.1-3.2 of TiteGroup should get you to PF with only slightly more perceived recoil.
I've seen several people say that, but so far seen no conclusive proof. But since they are sold under 2 different names I'll continue to name them both.
