I have been looking at the archives and other places on the net for data using Rainier 115 gr HP bullets and Unique powder. I found the info that Midway put out but I don't like their trim to length of .774". I intend to try other bullets and don't want to trim the cases that short for one bullet. Isn't .774 the SAAMI min length?
My Lyman 48th doesn't list a 115 gr lead HP to use in comparison, only a 120 gr LRN with a OAL of 1.065 with case trimmed to .751, and a 115 gr
JHP case trimmed to .751 with an OAL of 1.090".
I read that a good starting point for load would be -10% from max load of the JHP but I am not sure.
This is probably simpler than it seems but I think I confused myself.
I would like to trim to .751" and be able to try the other bullets listed in the manual.
Can anyone help me figure out how to properly load these Rainier bullets?
I also have WST but haven't found any published data for using it with 9mm.
