Sorry guys for some reason I typed before I really looked. I am loading 115gr. berrys with 4.5gr of titegroup.
 
I just loaded up some 115gr Berry's plated 9mm bullets over 4.5gr of Titegroup (1.12 OAL). Got 1175 fps from my 5" barrel PT-92. No signs of over-pressure, and accurate. I had been using 700X, but it doesn't meter consistently through my Lee Autodisk. The Titegroup meters dead-nuts on every drop. I'm going to chrono this load in 4" and 3" barrel guns to be sure there are no issues before I load up a bunch, but so far it seems okay.
 
I have used Titegroup on thousands of 9mm 115gr and .38 special 125 and 158gr bullets. I've used it in competition shooting and also in my plinking ammo. It is one of the cleanest burning powders I have used. I've never had soot on my hands and arms like the first post mentioned.

Dirtiest powder I have used is Bullseye. After shooting a steel match with my revolver, my left thumb is black.
 
I also have loaded hundreds of rounds of 9mm with Titegroup. I use 4.5 gr behind a winchester 115 gr JHP. Accurate, no pressure signs in a Glock or Springfield XD. Very reliable feeding, extraction. Never noticed any excessively hot slides or anything. Even in high temps. But I rarely shoot more than 50 rounds at a time. Usually when I am waiting for rifle barrels to cool between groups.
