That's looking good for you posted results! 8)
What is you primer?
COL?
WLP primers OAL 1.253
Never used Longshot before. Did you weight each charge or did you use a powder measure? Very close spread on the velocities.
Weighed each load on Dillon beam scale.

Beam scale explains the results. I use an RCBS beam scale that I purchased back in the early 80s.
Thanks.
9.2 shot really well in my RIA 5" yesterday-didn't chrono (was at an indoor public range). 3x fired S&B brass showed no pressure signs.
Other loads tried successfully were MBC 180gr coated TC w/9.2, and MBC 200gr coated TC's and Doubletap 200gr WFNGC's. Both 200gr loads did well at 8.2gr.
I'm expecting to see 1250fps+ for the 180 loads and 1150+ for the 200's.
200 WFNGC's were loaded 1.230 for feeding, everything else 1.255".
9 grains of Longshot and a 180 grain slug is my standard. I don't know why I even bother to try anything else.
Greetings, I've had good results with 9.3gr longshot out of my G20 and 2011 under a 180gr precision delta
