From some of the OPs questions, it may be assumed he isn't familiar with the book "The ABC's of Reloading"?
I would advise him to use HP-38/Win 231, before Titegroup. Both are good powders for .45 ACP and 9mm. Titegroup has a smaller window, and, is hotter burning. In short HP-38/231 is a more forgiving powder. Once you have your powder throw down pat, measure the powder for every 10th round. This is where most reloading errors take place.
The Hodgdon web site is my go-to source of loads, for Hodgdon powder. I use to buy their annual magazine for data, but there is no need to do this now. It's already been mentioned, more than once, use Excel to record your data.
I load 230 grain, Berry's Plated and/or Precision Delta FMJs, over 5.2 grains of HP-38 and a COL of 1.265.
For 9mm, I load 124 grain, Berry's Plated and/or Precision Delta FMJs, over 4.3 grains of HP-38 and a COL of 1.150.
Happy reloading.
