I have been trying to get with a Bulletsmiths at Sierra to get load data for +P 9mm with a 135gr boolit or bullet.
I am issued Hornady Critical Duty ammunition at work and want to load some practice ammunition because it has a lot more recoil than standard 9mm ammunition.

Does anyone have a source for data?

Midway 9mm luger loadmap book has data on 130gr Sierra bullets that get into +p pressures

Alliant doesn't offer you much help. You could probably use their data for 147 gr. projectiles and expect to exceed the max load listed, because you are using a shorter, lighter projectile.
It seems to me that Hodgdon.com has load data for 135 gr. bullets, which may get you on your way. You might take a look at those.

Go here and sort by bullet weight.

I have been using 5.4 grains of WAP and an Extreme 135gr HP plated bullet , no longer available but I have read that Silhouette is the same powder.
It has a potent load for a Glock 19, but no pressure signs!
