Very difficult trying to find handgun powders. What do you use and where can I find some? I only shoot 9mm/115 gr. Thanks.
Aside from all the favorites, HS-6 is an excellent powder for what your shooting!
I've use Bullseye with good success. 115 grain FMJ in 9mm. They were not service velocity loads but were consistant and reliable.
Winchester 231.

Anyone use Power Pistol? I just picked some up. Just wondering how it performs in 45 acp.
I normally use W231 or HP38 (they're essentially the same powder) for my 9mm loads, but that stuff's hard to come by lately. I managed to find some Titegroup, so I'm going to switch to that for a bit, and try to conserve the W231 and HP38 I have for other calibers.
Hard to beat W231 and HP38 in terms of versatility if you decide to load other pistol calibers.
I got the Power Pistol at an auction with some other powders and before I open the container I thought I'd get some input on its use. I don't reload 9 mm. I guess I'm just a big bullet type of guy.Try WST for 45 ACP. Great stuff and available in 4 and 8 lb jugs.
