Shooters World (Lovex) Clean Shot

Shooters World D032 Clean Shot

This is a very fast burning powder for use in 9MM. This is meant to compete with powders like Accurate #2 for example. It also competes with powders like VV N320, Titegroup, Bullseye and a group of other "fast" powders. These are generally economical powders because they use between ~3.2-4.0 grains when 124 grain and up bullets.

Well, cleanshot looks the cleanest. it actually objectively is. it has some small grit left over, like the Accurate #2 however. Some don't like that.

A fine shperical powder. Looks like melted chocolate beads or something. Has very un-uniform sizes to powder, some spheres are 5x larger than others, and then there is a mix of stick like powder in there too. An odd looking powder. We like that because its easy to distinguish with other powders. Nothing else looks like melted chocolate beads? This makes it easy to not mix up powders and understand exactly what you are loading.

This is supposed to compare to Accurate #2, so go look at that for comparison. It also burns similar to Accurate #2 in how clean it is. This is one of the cleanest burning powders we have tested.

It does not do anything the "best" that we saw, but its good price, easy well above average metering and totally acceptable accuracy make it a good choice for 9 MM. However its too fast of a powder to be recommended for high velocity loads, you want "Major Pistol" for that.

Lets take a look at some of the brass...
