I've never used mag primers with #9 in 357 Sig, 44 Mag or 10mm. It provides excellent velocity and accuracy with standard primers with low extreme spreads. I do enjoy your videos, please keep them coming.

Thank you very much for the kind words and the feedback we will certainly keep these videos coming as long as folks are watching! Accurate No. 9 generally speaking does not need magnum primers to get reliable ignition and tight velocity spreads I agree in full. Thanks for watching! --Jeremiah

Perfect timing! I just found the #7 video yesterday and thought to myself "I hope he does one on #9." Thanks for reading my mind. Great video.

My favorite powder for magnum pistols is Winchester 296. I use it in 357,41 magnum and my 450 bushmaster rifle. So many powders it's hard to choose.

Great video and timing. Just loaded up 100 rounds of .357 Magnum with # 9 and 180 grain Hornady XTP. 10.5 grains and some Magnum small pistol primers yesterday. Can’t wait to try them.

Great video, thanks! I just bought my first pound of AA #9 as I bought my first 10mm recently, a S&W 610. Looking forward to loading with it.

I have a 610 that I load hot with AA#9, and 200 grain lead hard cast bullets. I get about 1200 fps. It's a joy to shoot and accurate as the day is long in that longer barrel revolver.

Used AA9 for cast bullet loads, 32-30Rem, 32-40Win, 7-08 and a 218Bee, works quite well for that. SeeAccurate lists some AA9 loads for things a person may not expect as well.

Accurate No 9 is a great powder. I buy it in 8 pound jugs. I use it so much I almost buy 2 at a time. I use it for 44 Magnum and 10mm Auto. I have also had excellent consistency and accuracy with it. My numbers on the 10mm were almost identical to yours. I'm using a 180gr bullent with 13.2gr of No 9 powder. It meters very consistently in my progressive press. It's a very clean powder. Accurate No 7 is great for 9mm. I buy that in 8 pound jugs too. I would like to see a deep dive on Hodgdon Leverevolution. It's an interesting powder and I'm getting ready to work up loads with it. Also, I've started using Winchester 231 for 38 special. I'm still experimenting but I'm getting incredible groups from an 75 year old Smith and Wesson with it. Incredible means one of my batches was within an inch radius ring with 4 of the 6 shots with 158gr SWC at 25 yards. Last request would be BL-C(2). I've been using that in Remington 223 and 30-30. Great powder and underrated in my opinion. Meters well, clean, consistent, and versatile. These powder deep dives are really great for those of us wanting to get the most out of reloading.

AA#9 is a favorite of mine in 10mm with the 200+grain lead hard cast bullets.

200 grain bullets are kinda heavy for the Big 10 mm. I65 grain bullets are the perfect weight. Viht 3N37 works better than AA#9.

​@ricktaylor3748 200 grain Lasercast RNFP gas check hard cast bullet with ##9, is a load I have shot in my S&W 610 for years. That load also performs very well in my other three 10mm semiautomatic pistols.

Absolutely love the videos and the magazine great information please keep it coming thank you !!

Great video, Jeremiah! That burn rate chart - there seems to be a few powders right in that area of it that can be used both in some rifles and pistols both. H-110, 296, 2400, Lil Gun, #9 and probably a few others. H-110 in particular is (or at least at one time was) loaded in the .30 carbine by the factories. But Unique makes a good rifle powder, too, as long as you aren't looking for top end performance. I've had some luck loading cast and light jacketed bullets in .30-30 using Unique.

Bought some AA9 some months ago and haven't tried it yet ,I use around thirty five different propellants.Your vid has gotten me interested in developing some loads.I see in Handloader that Brian Pierce uses standard,non magnum primers with this powder unlike with say H110 or Lil Gun in handgun cartridges like .357 or .44mag..

My favorite powder for full power.357 magnum loads, especially with the Lyman/Thompson 358156. Great velocity and low extreme spreads.

Re the high extreme spread of the .218 Mashburn...I'd suspect the primer. The 7 1/2 primer would seem a little hot for the small powder charge, I'd try the 6 1/2 primer...if you can source them. I've always gotten better extreme spreads with standard, not magnum primers when using #9 in .357 Mag, .41 Mag, .44 Mag and heavy .45 Colt loads. I've also noticed considerably less muzzle flash from #9 when compared to H110/W296. Seems to burn cleaner as well.

AA #9 is my favorite powder for cast bullets in the 30-30. My 1947 Marlin 36ADL has won many a cowboy long range side match with that load.

Like the Accuarate 9- don't use magnum primers when loading 357. Great video.

10mm Auto and 45 Super No 9 great with Rem 7.5 primers in small primer cases.

Great info and we shared your video hope that is ok. Thank you for all your hard work and great data.

Love my E series

My go-to .357 Magnum powder as well as others. I tried it for a 10mm load, but found #7 or Ramshot Silhouette is more to my liking

Now wondering about this powder for 9MM loadings for a pcc. Thank you

I believe this powder is very similar, if not the same as Shooters World Heavy Pistol which also works great in .300 BO and .41 Magnum.

I use Shooters World heavy pistol and 2400 for cast lead bullet loads in 3030 Winchester. I have been considering number nine as well since it's in a similar burning range.

Propellant Profile book - when is the updated edition going to be released?

Neat series. (The .218 Mashburn Bee! 😉) If you’re sticking with Accurate for a while I’d like to see a video on 1680.

Thank you very much we greatly appreciate the kind words and the feedback! I love that little cartridge more than I probably should, it's great and the rifle is a joy to shoot. I think we can probably make that happen there are a lot of powders we want to cover! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment! --Jeremiah

Just wondering about your thoughts on #5. #7. #9 for 38/357 ....out of a leaver carbine .....16" barrel ....1-30 twist rate..... ? ...

I had position sensitive problems with the number 9 and 357 magnum 125 gr. Hornady xtp. I went with the Alliant 300 MP powder for really hot loads I was working on. The Don't know if number 9 is. If you can get good case fill maybe number 9 would be better.

@HandloaderTV

It is a little sensitive to position for sure especially compared to something like titegroup, also using a good stout crimp will help as well. I would think with hot loads you would have decent enough case fill to where that wouldn't be a huge concern but I may be mistaken on that. At any rate thank for sharing your experience and thoughts here in the comments. --Jeremiah

@HandloaderTV When I'm testing hot loads in any handgun I force the powder to both extremes by shaking it in both directions up and down and slowly move the gun down to aim. I do this just to see worst case scenarios. It probably isn't practical but I'm curious. IMR 4227 and no 9 I remember a fair amount of difference. 300 MP is a compressed load at or near max. Velocity is extreme and so is recoil. Soon I plan to see if I can find the perfect balance between recoil and Velocity with this powder. Nothing else has it's potential for 357. Case fill included. I shot it out of a Smith and Wesson 686 4 inch and it seemed to burn all the powder and Velocity increased relative to powder amount as you go up nicely.

Cool Well Done.. 11fs anytime soon? Your still haveing way too much fun... Have enough for me as well..

What’s a good solvent for cleaning corrosive ammo?

They are very close if not nearly the same in burn rate according to our testing, our burn rate chart and Hodgdon's as well. I have pasted a link here for you to review. hodgdonpowderco.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/updatedburnrateschart-1.pdf They are merely for reference but our testing and chart seems to back up Hodgdon's chart when it comes to H-110 and Lil Gun.
