Hi there folks,
New handloader here. So far I've had great results loading 38 specials. I'm interested in moving on to 357mag, but with components scarce these days it's hard to find exactly the stuff you need for published data.
I'm thinking of trying the following for a 357mag load:
Powder: 8.1 grains of N340
Bullet: 125 grain plated (Evergreen Ballistics, truncated cone)
Would you consider this load safe/usable? Right now I'm only interested in range velocities, nothing too crazy.
Here's a link to the bullet in question:

Alright, thanks so much!
