Long story short. I bought 8 bottles of Titegroup for $10 bucks off a friend that's moving.

I usually use CFE Pistol or Longshot to load hot 9mm rounds. I stepped up from 3.6grs of Titegroup to 5.0grs to find a good margin of error for progressive loading.

Bullet used was a 124gr FMJ recessed base from Everglades. .355" diameter, .618" OAL roughly.

5.0gr Titegroup, 1.140" COAL, 124gr FMJ RB from Everglades, mixed brass.

Moderate pressure signs on the primers, but spent cases still fall into my Glock 19, SIG P365, and Custom Glock chambers.

Am I being a retarded? I know Titegroup isn't meant for this work but was hoping to load this to 4.7gr on a Dillon 550 giving me a good margin of error. Hodgdon's website doesn't give much data on 124gr loads and their bullet listed is different than mine. So I just worked my way up.

Haven't been reloading long, just 9mm right now. Any of you guru's masters at loading 9mm Titegroup? This powder was so cheap I want to use it and still have it recoil close to a Winchester 9mm NATO to train with.

Give it to me straight. Back the eff down or did I do this margin for error thing right for progressive loading?

Will post pictures when I have time.

5.0?
wow, that's a lot
good thing your COAL was on the longer end of the range

Powder is a commodity. You can sell or trade it to get something more suitable for your purpose.

I would be willing to trade you some cfe if you like.
Cfe is my favorite for 9mm 124gr loads.

1.140" - 1.145" is the happy place for accuracy across my handguns with the bullet I'm using.

I would be willing to trade up to 4 bottles of Titegroup. I'll keep 4 to tinker with. My best accuracy I got was with TG was 4.0gr. but it was a very soft recoil. I don't have a chronograph yet so I'm going by "feel." Very unreliable but meh, it'll do for now. Again, I'm trying to emulate a 124gr NATO, which is the closest thing to the self defense rounds I store.
