    Looking to you competition guys again. I want to lay away a supply of powder that is clean burning, accurate, that will work well in all 3 calibers, with cast lead bullets (9,40,45). Must meter smoothly in Dillon 650.

    Thanks

    PS- got my bullets from GAT. Thanks for that tip. They are nice.

    I load Zero JHPs so I'm not sure about lead...someone else will surely chime in...but I love Titegroup for 9mm. Meters well in the Dillon and I think it is versatile enough to use in those calibers. It's definitely worth a look.

    Try Win-231 or WSF and I use WST. Been using WST powder in all 3 for the last 10 years. No problems, all with GAT bullets.

    I use Titegroup in all 3 calibers with very good success, esp in 9mm with GAT and my own cast bullets on my 650 and SDB. That being said, I have also had success with Universal Clays, Unique, 231, True Blue, AA#2 and #5. I always come back to Titegroup. I am sure someone will suggest N320 or N340, but for the price, Titegroup works just as well. It will leave some soot in the gun but not any unburnt powder. The word clean and lead bullets just do not go together.

    I like 231 at moderate to higher pressures. Other wise it is dirty!!!

    I run Power Pistol for moderate to hot loads and my .450 SMC and .45super loads.
