Hello all,
I could use some help here.
I am venturing to reload the diminutive .25 auto.
Out of all the manuals I possess the only powders suggested are Imr high skor 700x, unique and trailboss. I have all these powders but I'm also looking at burn rate charts that show that Imr PB and IMR 7625 are also quite close in burn rate.
I can't find any recipes for PB or 7625.
I only have 6 manuals at this time.
I purchased 500 lead 55gr fp-TC to load this cartridge, I have considered cleaning off the lube and powder coating them for use but haven't gotten that far as of yet.
I know I'll need to start low and work up, these will be fired from a cheap but perfect Phoenix arms .25 auto for plinking only and I really don't want to crack my frame pushing them. Anyone who has one of these knows how thin the frame is at Magwell.
I have 5 powders that could work for this but 2 might be a bit to fast. I have all 5 powders listed above and could really use some help working up a load for this.
I'll be using fiocchi brass, cci 500 primers and a number of powders hopefully.
All my manuals list 50gr fmj for their heaviest bullet but I'd like to practice with the 55gr fp-Tc if possible.
Any help will be greatly appreciated, does anyone have any loads for PB or 7625?
Thanks in advance!
Dave
