I agree with Rick W. I have been handloading for my Lugers, especially the 7.65P ones, for many years. I try to keep my loads as close to the original factory loads as possible using 92gr. lead and FMJ bullets and Unique powder. My Lugers seem to agree with the recoil impulse produced with Unique powder, so I stick with it. I have used other faster powders, but was not overly pleased with the results.

As to springs, I have the "calibration packs" from Wolff Springs and just do a trial and error approach to what each Luger is happy with when using my handloads. When I do shoot factory ammo in these Lugers, they seem to be o.k. with that ammo as well.
