The help I need is data for loading .9mm luger with 800-X powder. I am wanting to use a 115 grn fmj bullet. I can't find the data anywhere. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

I have three manuals, I see loads for 700X but nothing for 800-X.

Who makes 800-X?

I Googled 800X and found that it is made by IMR. I went to their load data and came up with this info:

Loading a 115 GR. LRN using IMR 800-X powder, Minimum is 4.5 grains at 1004 fps, maximum is 5.3 grains at 1128 fps.

Always start with the source. Then compare with others.
