   Dec 18, 2012 · Most mid range pistol powders will work fine for 40 S&W loads. Alliant: Bullseye, Unique. Hodgdon: Universal, HP38, HS-6, 700X. Ramshot: True Blue, Silhouette. Winchester: W231. You can go with faster powders such as Red Dot, Clays, Trail Boss, Zip, but that is more for low recoil/slow velocity loads.

   Jan 26, 2022 · The HP-38 powder is better used for slower bullets, such as the .45 ACP and .40 S&W. The best way I’ve learned to start is to go with a common bullet weight that you would see on a commercial box of ammo. The 155Gr for .40 S&W ammo is a popular weight for the caliber and one that I find the most success with.

   Jun 25, 2017 · Longshot is a good powder too for .40SW. But, it works best near maximum charge and so if you don't want the recoil, it isn't ideal....But it does give the best/safest higher velocities. CFE Pistol is a decent lower charge powder giving 850-900 fps cleanly and light recoil.

No. 7 is an excellent choice for high performance semi-auto handguns such as the 357 Sig, 38 Super, and 40 S&W. No. 7 is also a cost effective solution in larger magnum handgun calibers. Made in the USA.

   Jan 2, 2013 · Re: Powder Advice - 40 S&W 180 gr FMJ & plated I use 3.0 Clays with 180s, 725fps and a nice soft shooting Minor Power Factor load out of my Glock 35, 3.5 of Titegroup is a little faster but dirtier, and just as soft. Don't use Clays for full power ammo, Titegroup and/or W231 will work for minor or full power ammo. L.

   What gun powder should I use for 40 S&W?

   • Most mid range pistol powders will work fine for 40 S&W loads. You can go with faster powders such as Red Dot, Clays, Trail Boss, Zip, but that is more for low recoil/slow velocity loads. Slower powders such as Power Pistol, Enforcer, W296, Longshot are used for maximum velocity. Stick to the medium powders to begin with.

   What is the best ammo for a 40 S&W?

   • Hodgdon Longshot. It seems to give the highest velocities across the board of bullet weights, without over pressure. Max loads are easily overlapping into 10mm factory ammo territory. And of course you can load it mildly too. It's like this powder was invented specifically for the .40 S&W.

   How much ammo does a 40 S&W pistol cost?

   • The biggest issue with owning a .40 S&W pistol is I haven’t seen .40 S&W ammo for less than $0.60/bullet for FMJ a nd $1.50/bullet for HP since the start of the pandemic almost 2 full years ago. It’s almost impossible to train properly and maintain your comfort with your pistol if you can’t afford the ammo that your gun uses.

   Is there a correct powder for a 40 cartridge?

   • There really is no "correct" powder for the 40 or any other cartridge for that matter. You choose a powder for what you want it to do. If it's low vel, use a faster powder, if it's general plinking/practice ammo, use a medium burner, if it's full power/duty replication, use a medium slow powder.

   What powder should I use for reloading a 40?

   • For one new to the art of reloading, for the 40 I strongly recommend a medium burn rate powder (something similar to Unique) for no other reason than it is easier to check each powder charge because of the greater volume of powder in the case.

   Is a 40 S&W a good gun?

   • Even with the improved ballistics of the 9mm Luger, a .40 S&W bullet has seen improvements in ballistics as well. The added stopping power of a .40 S&W pistol that you can use as a Concealed Carry Weapon (CCW) is a great way to add power without adding size.
