Ok, I'm trolling. I've been looking for load data for .357 DEWC, and can't find any anywhere. I can't even begin to fudge some lowball starting numbers because none of the manufacturer's/ open-source manuals I have give seating depths for the loads they do list, for case volume comparison. (Most of them don't reveal the length of their test bbl, either.)
Does anyone have data they'd like to share, or is there a secret society, old curmudgeons' club, or other obscure group of hardcore DEWC fans out there with a web page?
What I'm looking to do is load a .358 148-150gr DEWC (exact profile/ brand tbd) to speeds well below 1,000 fps (if i mold my own, they'll be soft lead, which i want in the target, not my rifling).
Any ideas/ suggestions are welcome, even if (maybe especially if) they consist of explaining to the newby exactly why/ how he's being an idiot.
