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.
