Re: Reloading 9mm and .45 ACP - need advice.
I don't do 9mm my favorite powder for 45ACP is 231. haven't used HP38 but I have heard it's the same as 231. as to how much of it to use I would suggest you tinker with it some and see how light a load your pistol will tolerate. When loading for the 1911 style 45s I use the barrel as a gauge and make it as long as I can that will still fit in the barrel and mag.
If your COAL is too long or short you going to come to grief.
