Power Pistol in .45-very loud!

[32_d3gr33s]

Power pistol is my go-to powder for anytime i shoot at the indoor range with my 9, or 45. it does draw a little attention. i prefer 7.5gr with a 230gr bullet as well. tried 7.7 but the 7.5 was a little easier on the hands.

Its a power house for sure. I cant imagine the 8.1 load. 7.5 feels and sound very powerful and very fun to shoot. 7.1 aint bad either.

Hey where did you find power pistol lol

Power pistol is a great powder. It is my favorite for loading 40 s&W. I do not notice it being any louder than factory ammo is 40 but I have a feeling a large majority of factory 40 S&W ammo is loaded with power pistol.

If you want to see where power pistol really shines shoot some medium or high end loads across the chronograph. Most 5 shot string with my glocks usually have at least 2 duplicates and extreme spreads around 2 fps.

Some at gun show, some at Recobs, and I think some from Bass Pro? When I see most any pistol powder I sort of go off the deep end. Except BE-86...I had to just buy a single pound, then see if I liked it. Of all times to practice restraint, that was the worst. Havent scored any since.
