Would have thought they would advertise that, what with all the puffery from Hodgdon.
The only data I've seen on WST indicated that the change in velocity is minimal. Anybody have any links or data on this?
WST is inverse temperature sensitive. However I never had a problem going minor with it in USPSA matches. It will vary some but unless you are really pushing it in gaming power factor it's not an issue. I think it gets a bad rap from it's predecessor 452AA, which it replaced.
O/P you are fine running WST with lead or coated bullets at mild pressures. I wouldn't try to make 9mm NATO or +P loads with it. I don't use it for standard pressure 9mm loads with jacketed either but lead is fine.
I used lots of WST for 9mm but gave up on it because I couldn’t seem to get consistent drops from the measure. I have gone to Sport Pistol and VV N310 with good result using 147 gr bullets.
