Description
Ramshot ZIP is a clean-burning, double-base propellant designed for a wide range of handgun calibers. Built for shooters who spend serious time at the bench or on the range, ZIP combines versatile handgun application with the practical advantages of low charge weights.
Low charge weights make ZIP an economical choice for high-volume loading. It is designed to deliver low recoil, low flash, and minimal residue, helping keep the focus on consistent handgun shooting rather than excess cleanup.
Ramshot ZIP is well matched to popular cartridges including 9mm, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP. That broad handgun focus makes it a practical powder to consider when building a loading list around commonly used pistol cartridges.
Made in Belgium, ZIP brings Ramshot’s direct approach to handgun loading: clean-burning performance, versatile caliber coverage, and an efficient option for shooters loading in volume. Always consult appropriate published load data for your specific cartridge and components.

Great powder and fast delivery

Too light
This load is so light it will not cycle the action in 3 different pistols. The cartridges are severely burned. I went as high as 4.2 grains and still could not get satisfactory results.
