I am using a load a friend gave me. 5gr V340 with a 115gr XTP. This is with a 1X32 twist barrel in a M9. 5gr WSF is a go to load with 115gr FMJ and 5.2gr True Blue is good for 124gr FMJ with standard barrels.

I would start 2ths under the VV340 loading guide and work up a few from there in 2ths steps

VN 340 seems to have a similar burn rate as CFE, 4.2 gn CFE and 147gn RMR Match winner is pretty darn accurate.

Re: best accurate loading for 9 Luger
Only Tony_in_Sweden actually objectively covered his accuracy results. Wish more people would do that since there are a near infinite definitions of accuracy from it consistently hits a 6" disk at 20 feet to it produces groups of 0.25-0.30 inches at 100 yards. Both are accurate for the job but they sure aren't the same thing.

I think it depends on the barrel twist. 1:32 requires higher velocity loads (115 and 124); 1:16 seems good for the 124 gr bullets. If it's a 1:10 barrel, a 147 gr bullet is best in my experience.
