Looking for standard velocity stuff, no +p........using 135 grain bullets....probably want to run about 950-1000 fps. I want something that burns clean.

4.5 gr WW-231 burns pretty clean under 124-gr lead and jacketed bullets out of my 9mms. It's also pretty low-flash.

No subgun, though.

WW231 has been my standard in the MP5's with 115 bullets. I got a LARGE quantity of pulled Hornady 95 grain .380 bullets about 10 years ago and they ran great in the MP5 for blasting. I have also loaded up WW231 in larger doses for the UZI SMG.
