    Thanks again for posting this. I've used you data several times when I switched bullets. Also convenient that you shoot a shadow.
    I have a large spreadsheet, but I didn't want to post it because I didn't want anyone to modify it, so I gathered the data needed and made it into a PDF file. I have other calibers too so if anyone is interested just let me know.

    What is your opinion of using clays for 9mm bb? I have been using hp38 and have quite a bit of clays on hand that I could use. Do you have a legend for the colors in the sheet?

    Clays works good for a light load, 2.8 grs with bayou 125, but it won't make 130 power factor with accuracy. Clay's is not a good powder for accuracy in a 9mm no matter what bullet I tried. For accuracy you need N330, N340 or Power Pistol. Tightgroup is my main go to powder. Like I said I loaded a bunch of 125's with 2.8 of clays and shot it out of my shadow for a class and it functioned fine, but the powerfactor was 109-111. Won't operate the slide on most stock guns unless you have a much lighter recoil spring.
