For years I have been using Gold Dot 124+ P as my standard JHP load. Recently, I started using Federal HST 124+ P as well. Through multiple boxes, I noticed that when I load a magazine, my hands are filthy. Others experiencing the same thing?

Likes pretty much everything in every caliber.
I have recent production 124gr standard pressure and haven’t seen an issue like that.
I get that same level of dirt with Gold Dot.

I’ve Noticed it more frequently with hst than I have gold dot. But I’ve seen it from both.
Whenever I load up my mags with 9mm Gold Dot duty after finishing up at the range my index finger and thumb have the same grey color on them as your OP photo. I definitely remember HST doing the same thing when I was carrying it for my off duty gun at my last agency. Interestingly enough, my previous agency issued .45 ACP 230gr Gold Dot and don’t remember getting that discoloration on my fingers when loading up with duty ammo after training.
