Bought a pound of wsf just to try.

From mild to wild,,this friggin powder shoots!!
Never tried this powder before,been on the market about 10 years.
Very similar to powerpistol,,5grs is about 1100fps,,and shoots splendid.

I went from 4.5 (930fps)up to 6.o(1260fps)
That 6gr load shot loose typical for this bullet,even though its 21 bn,,it craps out over 1200.
But 1050-1100,,man,it shot splendid groups!

Still trying to use up the hp38 & 296 before I open the pound of wsf for the 40SW. Glad to hear it works good. Now just try to find more SPP at a good price.

The way so any new powders are offered I doubt I will be seeing them. We are still happily working on powders from 20 years ago.

Does “wsf” stand for something, or is that it, wsf, in small letters. I don’t believe I have heard of it.

A lot longer than a decade I thought. I seem to remember it in Speer #11 but could be wrong.

I have yet to find a reasonably appropriate powder for the .38 Super Auto that it doesn't like. If I had to choose a favorite it would be IMR PB which has been discontinued for something like a decade now.

Been around from the early 90's at least. I bought a pound for my 20ga slugs back then. Heck I still have 3lbs of 7625 that shot well in that 20ga. I was always going to try it in 9mm as the guys liked it for +p+ speeds

WSF is my go-to powder for standard 9mm Luger. If you're after the absolute maximum velocity from 9mm, it will not get you there but for any sane target load, it works beautifully.
