Just a precursor, I’m new here.
have reloaded shotgun for 40 years, rifle for 30 years. But pistol never made sense to me because factory was so cheap. Things changed last April so I started stockpiling components. Basically I’m a newbie.
I bought a Dillion 550 and have run about 500 .380 and 1,000 9mm through it so I think I have worked out the kinks.
Now I want to start on .357, primarily for my Marlin 1884.
I have 140 grain, Hornady FTX bullets. The powders I have on hand are Accurate #7 and VihtaVuori 3N37.
I have several manuals, including the Hornady manual the shows the 140 grain FTX.
But I wanted some input since this load is for a rifle instead of a handgun.
The rifle has a 16” barrel.
I welcome all input.
