I am about to test my first castings. I have about 150 bullets I am going to load into 40 s&w and 10mm. I haven't loaded them yet. I need to decide on my powder. I believe I will avoid using titegroup. I know I have some unique, clays, and universal clays. I also have some AA #9. Not sure what I will use. If I can use #9 for all of the loadings I think I will use that. I'm going to load up 3 types, low, medium, and almost nuclear. Everything will be within the manual guidelines. I'm going to evaluate for leading, pressure, etc.
I have 175 gr lead f/ Lee molds, 14 bhn
Test guns are
Browning HiPower 40
Steel frame witness 10mm
Witness Elite Match 10mm
Beretta 96G 40
Delta Elite 10mm
Smith 1066 10mm
