9mm NATO ball load?

[Burnt Fingers]

I've been looking for some load data for a 124/125 gr cast boolit at 1200 fps.

There doesn't seem to be much data for a load this hot that I can find.

What do you expect?
Nearly every NATO country makes their own 9mm and sources local powder.

If you want to fiddle then maybe Quickload or Load From a Disk is the way to go.

I load a Lee 358-125-rf over titegroup for all my 9mm use.
Right at 1100fps in the g26 and faster in the ruger pcc.

No trouble at all from the Lyman manual.

;)
Good luck

NATO velocity loads are considered to be +P for 9mm. Few manufacturers will list +P load data. Some do.
The only manufacturer I have access to that lists +P data is Accurate Arms. Their data is for a 4 inch barrel.
Almost every data manual I have access to, lists data for a 4 inch barrel. Some of these will come close to the speeds you are looking for from a 5 inch barrel.

Just one question.....why?

I'd rather have excellent accuracy and average speed.

I've got a new Canik and they need 100 rounds or so of NATO to break in. It's the fourth Canik I've dealt with and they have all required this break in.

Instead of spending my money buying ammo I'd rather reload it.

Eh, just load them hot with power pistol or some other high energy/velocity powder for the 9mm. I've never heard of required nato break in. The gun will either run or it wont. My CZ-509 did require a "break in" period as well, but it ran fine with hotter loads using BE-86.

Those Caniks are nice.
