Anybody have any good loading data for 9mm largo? I've found some, but I'm not finding anything that matches up with what I have. I am wanting to use 115 gr. FMJ projectiles mainly, but the data that I can find is for 125 gr.. Likewise, I have some 125 gr. JHP, but the data I can find is for 115 gr. JHP. I also have Clays and Titegroup powders. I can find Clays data for the above projectiles but nothing for Titegroup. My main concern is the OAL. I've read that I can use 9mm Luger data, because the larger Largo cases will reduce the pressure to a safe level, but of course, the OAL data won't be the same. I've also read that I can use .38 Auto (not Super) data, but again there is a slight difference in OAL.
Here's what I've found. Does anyone have "equivalents" or recommendations on how I can adapt these to use what I have on hand? (Clays or Titegroup and 115 gr. FMJ or 125 gr. JHP)
I am not using the below data! See subsequent posts. And thanks to everyone that kept me from blowing up my guns or myself!
.355 115 gr. JHP Cartridge OAL: 1.250"
.355 125 gr. FMJ Cartridge OAL: 1.300"
