    need load data for .40 S&W

    hey guys, brand new to the forum and loading, im looking for some load data for my px4 storm. i'm using winchester 231 powder, and for the time being the only bullets i have to load are hornady 180gr hp/xtp as they came free with my dies. for those i'm looking for sufficient loads for self defense. as far as plinking and punching paper, im open to suggestions for both a bullet type and the data to go with it. any help/replies are appreciated.

        the reloading book i have is the nosler no. 6, and it only has load data for 135 gr and 150gr bullets, so for the 180 gr that i got for free it doesnt do me a lot of good.
