Happy New Year to everyone![smilie=p:

I am looking for load data for Hornady 147g XTP in 9mm Luger. Any suggestions and also for COL.

Thanks,

Not usually a condom bullet information source however I'm sure someone can help you out. I'm sure there is plenty of information available for this bullet, even I have loaded it, but it has been many years ago.

Do you have a powder preference?

I want to use Winchester 231 or Unique for my powder.

Thanks,

handloads.com has some data for the 147gr XTP using Unique.

In my 9mm Luger T/C Contender carbine (18" barrel) I am using 4.6 gr of Unique to propel a 150 gr RN boolit at 1050-1080 FPS. It shoots very well and I love it for a plinking load. The boolit is sized for 357 so I don't know how that would work in a semi-auto.
