I have been using HS-6 for my 9's. I just build a AR9 and have realized how dirty this powder really is. So, no I am trying to find something that burns a little cleaner. What do you like for 9mm range powder? |

Quoted:
Try Power Pistol if you can get it. It's pretty clean for me, and plus it's a slower burning powder so you should get good performance in the AR9 from it. Some people say True Blue is similar, but I haven't tried it. Oh, and it makes sweet fireballs. +1 Good velocity and impressive fireworks. |

Quoted: Am I the only one that thinks W231 is dirty? That is all I have used soo far for 9mm, but man it just seems soo dirty.. I'm not sure what I am going to try next... -Masta What load are you using for 9mm? W231 is pretty dirty at low pressures but cleans up pretty well with higher pressure. -Deke |

If you aren't close to full power they won't burn clean. If you really want to see some scummy handguns shoot a bunch of Federal 148 grain .38 Special wadcutters. Low velocities, low pressures = incomplete powder burning. That's my theory on it, for what it's worth. I have never been pleased shooting Unique as far as cleanlieness goes. But it shoots well, and is sometimes the most accurate powder when using lead bullets. |
