what bullet, and what powder? I can check my documentation when I get home.

I know Hornady, Speer, and Lee all have loads in their manuals. I usually use plated Berry’s 95 gr and unique. I’d have to look up how much in my logbook

You can view load data form Alliant, Hodgdon, lyman and Speer on line for 9x18 Makarov.

There is a discrepancy in the load data given in post #2, it shows the 95gr Hornady xtp dia. at .364"? My Hornady manual shows .365" my box of Hornady 95gr xtp bullets says .365" dia #36500, the current Hodgdon data shows .365" dia.
I don't know if Hornady made a .364" likely #36400 but it would sure be a lot easier to seat, the #36500 has a flat base and it is a PITA to seat.
.365" is what cast and coated bullets are size at.

I did notice on the Alliant web sight the 95gr FMJ load with BE-86 listed a F-100 primer? The other two loads listed are with a CCI-500 primer.
The PM has a floating firing pin I do not use F-100 in reloads for my PM, I use CCI-500 or WSP. I think the F-100 is to sensitive for this firearm.

I have been loading for my CZ-82 using the XTP 95 grain with HP 38,I believe I was loading to 3.8 grains.

This discussion is about reloading, so I have moved it to "Reloading."
