Found some Titewad

[tazman]

Found some Titewad over the weekend at my nearest gun shop. Normally I wouldn't consider this powder but a few months ago I bought 2 bottles of it by accident thinking it was Titegroup.
I found that for light target work in my 38 special it is great. Also very cheap per shot.
The best part was using it in my 9mm with the Lee 95 grain boolit. It gives me just under 1200fps and superb accuracy with negligible recoil. It is my second most accurate load and the least expensive practice round I have. Discounting the cost of the brass I can load for less than 5 cents a round.
Now I have 4 pounds to work with.

Don't feel bad. I did the same thing. I kept it and loaded 200gr LSWC ahead of 4gr TW in my 45acp and found out this mid level loading provided me with acceptable accuracy and safety margin with that powder. Is definitely buy more if it was available.

At less than 5¢ a reload, it's cheaper than 22.

I bought a coupe ## sometime back but have never used it for SG shells as I planned.

What load are you using on that 9mm?

4 grains of Titewad under the Lee 356-95-rf gives me 1170fps in my Beretta barreled Taurus pt92. Very soft shooting and extremely accurate.
I just installed an 16lb extra strength recoil spring in the Taurus and it functions fine.

2.4-2.6 grains works well with 148 grain hollow base wadcutters in 38 special, 2.2 grains works in a 32 auto with a 70 grain hp boolit. Its good stuff and works well in both applications.

Had a couple of people mention the 380 and Titewad in other threads. They agree with your results.
I was using 2.7 under my wadcutter. Had it loaded a bit long though. Crimped in the first grease groove.

Also works well in 308 win cases at less than 7 grains through a suppressor...whisper quiet.

I may need to try that in my 30-06. What boolit weights are you using?

Something like that has been bouncing around in my head ever since I bought the first bottle of it.
