Hello, I picked up a pound of Silhouette because I couldn't locate WSF. Has anyone tried this in 9mm, and if so would you consider sharing any loads? I'm trying to use a case of Czech fmj ammunition that I discovered is terribly inaccurate. As in shotgun patterns. So, I'm breaking it down and using the primed cases for practice ammunition. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Many of Michigan Border Patrol PPC shooters use it 9mm

I’ll have to see where I put the info.

It looks like Midway has WSF in 1,4 or 8 lb containers.

Winchester WSF Smokeless Gun Powder 8 lb (midwayusa.com)

Update:

Hey Jim,
 
He shot the 600 during his extra match, no pressure!!  We are shooting 115 grn JHP Hornady HAP or Precision Delta bullets with 5.1 grains of Ramshot Silhouette, and any primer.  You can reduce the powder to 4.9 for indoor, but the 5.1 shoots the best group at 50 yards.  Winchester AutoComp is pretty close to the Silhouette too.

Thanks so much for the info. I have some Zero hollow points I'm going to use. I have a stash of 231 but want to save that for .45 loads if need be.
