USPSA load for .40 S&W PD 180gr RN/FP bullet using 800-x?

I have the Lyman #49. But I cannot find a load similar to .40 S&W Precision Delta 180 gr bullets using IMR 800-x or AA #7. Anyone have a load for this combination suitable for IDPA or USPSA?

BTW: My LnL AP powder drop doesn't seem to have the "corn flakes" issues measuring 800-x that other people report. It's always been very accurate with this powder. I do have an accurate beam scale with calibration weights so it not the scale, lol.

Page 363 has a load for the 40 S&W using 800X and a 180 grain bullet. The only change would be the OAL since this load is for a Jacketed HP. Instead of using the 1.115 OAL I would use a OAL of 1.125 for the bullet you will be using.

As always, start low and work your load up.

"Page 363 has a load for the 40 S&W using 800X and a 180 grain bullet..."

Yeah, I've done a few loads based on that entry. But I don't have a chrono and was hoping someone might have been a little more scientific about it. But thanks for pointing it out.
