Just finished a couple of batches. First was the nickel 357sig cases I had 45 pieces , used 7.2gr of CFE Pistol , Federal 💯 primers at 1.135" to 1.140" . Had to adjust the seating die height because of the change of brass.

The second batch was 140 misc brass 357cases , 8.2gr of Longshot , Federal 💯 primers at 1.140" with the Hornady 142gr FMJ bullets. This load is right at the extrapolated max for this powder. Should be a pretty fast load.

Ok , the Longshot load of 8.1 gr and the 142gr FMJ is the NEW Range Load !  Didn't Chrono it it but it's fairly stout. It's doesn't flatten the primers or F'up the brass.
