I will move this thread to the 40 caliber forum, which would be a good forum to search in for previous threads that may cover your question.

Well I have a fusion .40 caliber kit which is in theory STI parts. I had some 1.135 nominal AOL ammo with plated berrys 180gr heads over between 4.4 and 4.5 grains of titegroup. It was making about 172pf. Montana gold is going to give lower velocities, and barrels vary, but it's a data point.

Titegroup is an obvious favorite and PP is nice but has a fair amount of flash

I don't use TG. But I found several posts on the forum saying they use TG in STIs with 180 grain bullets and a lot of them are using OAL closer to 1.17" to 1.19" with powder charges ranging from 4.2 grains to 4.7 grains. Hope this helps.
