What's your favorite powder/charge in 9mm with 115gr. bullets ? I'm currently using Unique and HS-6, looking for others to try.

I use AA#7 for my 9's but for 124g. It should work very well for 115g's too.

Power Pistol works great. You will get a bit of flash/bang if that bothers you.

I don't remember what the charge weight was for 115, but WSF is my go to powder for 9mm. Titegroup has too narrow of a range for me to be comfortable throwing in a progressive (at least MY progressive, anyway), and CFE Pistol is dirty AF.

I’d go fast with a light 115 grn bullet, for me that’s Titegroup. I may go Win-231 next.

I use 231 now, but that's mostly because that's what I have. But its fine.

4.5 grains of W231. I use it with Eggleston coated 115 grain TC coated bullets in my Glocks. Accurate and reliable.

4.5 grains Bullseye is a great load. I also like 6.0 of Power Pistol and 6.1 of WSF. Mostly under Montana Gold JHP or Hornady HAP.

I'm very new to reloading 9mm as it's been so cheap for so long it just wasn't worth my time. I still have a good stash of commercial 9mm but decided to start rolling my own anyway. On a friend's recommendation I started with TiteGroup and it's performed pretty well. I tried some 231 but it didn't group as well as the TiteGroup does. Mind you this is all with 124gr bullets, I don't know if it's indicative of how a 115 would work. I'm going to try some Bullseye next.
