Ordered a new PF9, so had a few days to work up some loads. Had some Hornady 90 Gr JHP so made up some loads to test out what would work best. Attached pics are (1) Remington Factory 115 gr and below that Federal 115 gr, 4 shots each. (2) Bullseye with various gr.....exciting because 4.8 gr load was (slightly) better than factory, then (3) Hodgen HS6. BTW HS6 sprayed unburned powder when I shot into the bucket full of paper.
Appreciate comments.

Sans,

Welcome to the forum.

In my experiences with HS-6 has taught me that it wants loaded to full pressure. And sometimes a rifle or magnum primer or I get lots of unburnt grains too.

hs-6 s pretty good in faster moving shot shell loads.
it'd be on the slow side for 9mm, and should work better with a heavier bullet pushed fairly hard.
