I'm looking to put together a plinking load for a comped 9mm. Not terribly concerned about making major, interested in just trying to make enough gas to feed the comp. AA9 seemed like a viable candidate - slower then AA7 which might allow a little more powder (and more gas volume). I haven't been able to find any 9mm loads for AA9 tho, which tells me that either this is a very bad idea or just that maybe nobody else was interested. If anyone has any experience with using AA9 to load 9mm, would you share your experience?

Thanks for reading,
Jared

It's a very bad idea. WAY too slow for 9mm...that's like a .44mag /.357 Maximum powder.

For 9 I'd stick to #5 or #7.
