   Dec 18, 2012 · 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.

   Feb 11, 2012 · Posts: 2,905. I use Alliant's "Power Pistol" powder - it was pretty much designed for semiautomatic pistols, particularly 9mm, .357 Sig and .40 S&W.

   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 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.
