That's the stuff!
 
I use that exact ammo, Win. White Box Target / Range 115 gr. ball, exclusively when testing!!!! Only, only complaint is........ It's really dirty to shoot.... guns a mess when done!!! Still, it works in drums, and great in Lugers in general!, And, that's about as far as I care!!! :)... Best to all, til....lat'r....GT....:cheers:

Handloads in Lugers
 
I generally like to use my handloads in Lugers. Nothing wrong with WWB; but per advice from Sieger & others when I started shooting Lugers, I load the 9mm rounds longer than factory for Lugers. The results have been excellent. Handloading also allows me to experiment with different powders, although I pretty well stick to a moderate load of Green Dot. :) Bill

The SAAMI maximum OAL spec for the 9x19 cartridge = the original DWM minimum OAL spec. Instant problem.
