Need a 9mm feel .40 load recipe, anyone got a powder puff .40 load

[ssgrock3]

Just do what I did with 9mm.

Start with the minimum RedDot load, keep decreasing the powder charge, making certain the bullet clears the barrel. Do that until the slide won't cycle. Then bump it up a few tenths.

I have a RedDot load that drops the brass in a pile right beside my right foot.

I have one of those for 147gr 9mm, the only gun it works well in is a glock 26, literally drops the brass at your feet.

The 165gr hst will likely be warm in 10mm i figure golddot data will be a good place to experiment.

If the 40 is too much for ya, Maybe put your purse down and use two hands.

It’s not the recoil, just want to see how fast and accurate it will run

@swampratt might be the king of "powder puff" loads... IIRC he worked up some small loads for wax bullets a while back...

He was just tellin me about some 30-06 he powder puffed. He said they sound like a Blackcat.

Having been involved with a few @swampratt discussion on reloading, I will definitely say that his opinion on the subject seems to come from a lot of experience, testing, and practice.
