Alliant Sport Pistol

Alliant Sport Pistol is a U.S.-made smokeless handgun propellant designed for precision and action pistol use; it’s formulated to give reliable cycling, good case fill and consistent ballistics while producing low muzzle flash and a relatively clean burn, and the manufacturer specifically notes optimization for polymer-coated bullets to reduce coating degradation at the base.

Practical shooters commonly use Sport Pistol across popular calibers (9 mm, .38/.357, .40 S&W, .45 ACP, 10 mm, etc.) because it sits in the faster end of pistol powder burn-rates and has published load data from Alliant and independent sources; as always, follow current manufacturer load tables and work up charges from reduced levels rather than substituting powders blindly.
