They're loaded very hot and put in 9mm size frames.

They're sorta pushing the envelope with that combo.

Yeah, I never load max on the 40 for my Shield or my XD's. I'm loading 5.8 grains CFE Pistol with a 180 grain bullet which should be 30,000 ball park. Sammi on a 40 is 35,000 so I have a comfortable margin. Max load on the CFE pistol is 6 grains and minimum is 5.4 grains.

It's a bit under factory loads, not much. My carry load is a Federal 180 grain HST. It functions and is accurate. No need to push the envelope in this.

The older I become the more I am convinced that the voice of honor in a man's heart is the voice of GOD.
