MikedaddyH Posted July 22, 2019 Author Report Posted July 22, 2019 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.
MikedaddyH Posted August 19, 2019 Author Report Posted August 19, 2019 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.
MikedaddyH Posted August 19, 2019 Author Report Posted August 19, 2019 So I picked up another pound of Longshot Saturday and made 363 rounds of my new go to range load. 8.1grains of Longshot - (powder throws between 7.8 to 8.1gr with the Lee Disk .82 ) 142gr Hornady FMJ .355dia Federal 💯 Champion primer OAL 1.1375" to 1.1390" Speer 357sig brass Tested in Glock 31 & Glock 32 non factory barrels.
