Anyone have a good load/recipe for 9mm? This is what I'm thinking:
Brass: I have a lot already but it's not prepped
Projectile: will be getting 124gr in some of Eggleston's and also try some plated to see what works
Primer: CCI #500
Powder: this is what I'm hung up on
What powder do you guys recommend for 9mm?

My sleeper pick goes to ramshot silhouette. My FFL guy swears by it for his 40short&weak and he uses it for uspsa. It is also a ball powder which is nice for metering. I have been 10/10 satisfied with all the ramshot powders that I have used to date.

I have no interest in making $40 online bets... he wanted to get saucy and challenge me to put money on it, I said fine, lets bet $20. He then wanted to demand 2:1 odds. I even gave him my $20 to his $15 which he ignored.

Anyone have experience with the Bushnell AR-223 with the Illuminated Reticle? I like the idea of the quick throw lever. PSA has a pretty attractive price on it.

And then . . . there was only one. RIP. Ballsy group of dudes.
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2016/06/22...l?intcmp=hpbt1
One of the last two surviving members of the Doolittle Raiders -- who bombed Japan in an attack that stunned that nation and boosted U.S. morale -- has died in Montana, his family said.
Retired Staff Sgt. David Jonathan Thatcher died Wednesday in a Missoula hospital. He was 94. He suffered a stroke on Sunday, Thatcher's son Jeff told the Missoulian newspaper.
Thatcher's death leaves Retired Lt. Col. Richard "Dick" Cole of Comfort, Texas, as the only living airman from among 80 who took off from an aircraft carrier on 16 B-25 bombers to target factory areas and military installations in Japan on April 18, 1942. Afterward, the planes headed for airfields in mainland China, realizing they would run out of fuel, according to the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force.

I'd ask in the reloading thread, but I already skimmed through it and the thread seems dead...
Another reloading question:
About how many rounds of 124gr 9mm will 1lb of powder load?
If it's dependent upon the model/brand of powder, then how much will Alliant Bullseye load and how much will the Winchester 231 load?

I bought a bushnell cheapie TRS-25 as a first red dot to try out... it did not survive the 1 day of inclement weather in the Lazy Vickers class.
I know you weren't asking about that optic specifically, but just to support the above notion.

7000 grains in a pound. If you are loading at 5 grains per cartridge that's 1400 rounds not accounting for spillage. Once you find a powder you like then just buy an 8lb jug and never look back

I will probably just go with this then:
Primer: CCI #500
Projectile: Pretty much anything that is plated. Will try Eggleston's.
Powder: Win 231. If Eggleston's recommends a different powder for his bullets, I'll try that
I went to Dillon in Scottsdale a couple of weeks ago. One of the employees highlighted a bunch of stuff in a pamphlet for what I'll want to get. I'll go though all of that and then should be purchasing here in the next week or two.
I think I'm going to buy a good 10-15k rounds worth of primers and powder, but only a few thousand of projectiles to start with. My reasoning is that projectiles will be much easier to come by relatively to primers and powder.

If I bought all of this:
15000 CCI #500: $477.7http://www.midwayusa.com/product/130...ol-primers-500
5000 Rainier 124gr 9mm: $522.94http://www.midwayusa.com/product/105...ted-round-nose
16 lbs Winchester 231: 332.14http://www.powdervalleyinc.com/
That would be a total of $1,332.78
Price per round would be $0.16
Pre 2016 panic (something like 1000 Speer Lawman shipped from sgammo) that would be about a $0.06 per round saving. So I'm saving about $60/1000 rounds with that load.
If all of my equipment costs me about $1000, then it will take 16666.66 reloaded rounds to break even on equipment costs. I shoot about 12-16k rounds of 9mm per year so that wouldn't take long.
If I can bring the price per round down to even just $0.14 then I'd be looking at $0.08 saving per round. Which means break even is just 12500 rounds.
So if you start with 0 reloading equipment (me) then it's about $2400 to be able to reload 5k rounds of 9mm and also have another 10k rounds of powder and primers left over... assuming you have the brass.
