I'm looking for minor power factor load suggestions for this 145gr bullet in 40S&W. What I'm after is any loads that will meet 125pf and cycle my S&W M&P 40 with storm lake ported barrel. Available Powders are Power Pistol, Red Dot, Unique, Bullseye, Longshot, CFE Pistol Titegroup, Green Dot and Clays.

Although I haven't shot that boolit much (my brother doesn't like it, he prefers the 401-175) it shoots great over 5 grains of unique. I also shoot the 175 over 5 grains. I have some loaded up that I could run across the chronograph but it is more than likely going to make minor. At 145 grains you will only need 875 fps. I'm sure 5 grains of Unique will get you there with fps to spare.

Both 5.0gr Unique and 4.6gr of Green Dot seated at 1.07" yielded around 975fps for me this weekend.
I think my OAL is a little short but I can't find any specs for this boolit.
Any OAL information for this boolit would be appreciated.

i load that one to 1.100" for my 3rd gen smith and ill bet that would run in anything
ive been using 3.5gr bullseye and ill bet it doesnt make minor (im sure it doesnt as quickload says 111pf)
but i bet 4 or 4.2gr would and would still be comfy to shoot
