When Winchester published there free load hand out book
WST was one of the ones that they never listed under 9mm
I know quite a few people who use it . Also they have books with the load in there.. that's where I got my data.. just seeing if more people use it and how much
I like WST and also Bullseye for 9mm, 40 and 45 acp.
Try about 3.8 or 4.0 gr of either powder for each of the three bullets above for a nice plinker load.
My Glocks handle these light loads fine.
3 grains under a 125 grain lee, air cooled makes a nice shooter
I was given a 6lb. pound keg of WW 452AA (which WST replaced) by a friend who was quitting shotgunning.
I have used the same 4.6gr. load of it with 124gr. cast or plated bullets in 9mm. Luger, Largo and Steyr, and also in 45ACP with 230gr. cast or plated.
It gives good accuracy, also burns clean in all of them, and as I'm pushing 69 years of age and the load is only 4.6gr., the keg will likely outlast me.
