I don't usually load full load .357's as most of my reloading is for cowboy action and are of the the mild varity, but once and a while like to go out an shoot some stout loads. (not for CAS) Anyway, I came across this load from the alliant web site; http://www.alliantpowder.com/reload...gtypeid=1&weight=110&shellid=1015&bulletid=24
Using the load from the bottom of the page, "110 JHP bullets federal 200 small magnum primers, and 16 grains of BlueDot powder." This is supposed to give a velocity of 2040 fps out of a 5.6 inch barrel. I have tried this load and I was impressed with the muzzle blast/recoil and could believe it was producing this velocity. Just wondering if anyone has chronographed this recipe and does it really go that fast. Thanks, LM.
