The perfect load for Production Gun

I have been reloading since I was a little boy with my father’s Lee reloading machine but it was primary for Bulleyes shooting and “Terræn” shooting in 9mm and cal. 32. For some years ago I shot 38. super in Open Class and was reloading with great success with my Dillon Square Deal B, but the Springfield pistol was crap and didn’t work. Now I am making reloads for my Sphinx 3000, but only for competition.

I have been looking for info about “the perfect load” on the internet and asking fellow shooters at big competition, and now I have collected some info about 9mm ammunition for Production Class. The big question is; a heavy or a light bullet?

I have tried 145 grains bullet for some years ago but it never really worked for me – I didn’t like the recoil characteristics. I like a fast closing time and fast bullets.

The table below with reloading data comes from various shooters that shoot Production Class.
