    Evidently, I lost my reloading book for 9mm.....

    I need to find the pressure, and MV of this recent batch of ammo I made, so I can have a baseline on where to go from here:
    147 gr. XTP JHP
    4.0 Grains of Unique


    IIRC, this should have a MV of around 990 fps, and a CUP of 28,600....????

    Find a reloading manual maybe unique has one online?
    MV will depend on the gun and length of barrel.
