Product Overview
Midsouth is proud to offer Shooters World Heavy Pistol Smokeless Powder in 8 lbs canisters. Heavy Pistol is formulated for use in a wide variety of magnum handgun calibers, as well as supersonic .300 Blackout loads. Heavy Pistol is a canister form of Lovex bulk propellant D037-02 and has a similar burn rate to Accurate No. 9. A high density, double base, flash suppressed propellant, it does not require a full case to ignite well, nor does it demand magnum pistol primers for superior ignition.
Summary
Shooters World Heavy Pistol Smokeless Powder is a very clean burning magnum handgun type powder. Heavy Pistol has a low muzzle flash signature and works equally well with both jacketed and non-jacketed bullets. Though normally associated with magnum calibers, Heavy Pistol can also be used to load reduced power loads effectively as well.

Note*As with any propellant and load combination, a minor change to any of the components of the test load CAN result in significant shift in ballistic performance. This shift can cause unintended high pressures, and result in injury or death. Therefore, Shooters World LLC, nor the manufacturer of this propellant take no responsibility for the intentional or unintentional misuse of this product. The charge weights and results noted within are not recommended, either as a starting nor completed load.
