    Anyone ever use ZIP?

    I had picked up up a bottle only knowing that it was a pistol powder.... the price was right... found it shot really good under the 90 grain XTP.... velocity was a little lower than some the other powders I had for .380... but was still in the 900fps range which is fine ...about the same as AA#2...

    Loading 357 Sig

    AA#9 is a good 357 SIG powder.... AA#5 is OK, Longshot is great, 800x is great(but metering sucks), Enforcer is good for heavier bullets, HS6(Win 540) is good...there are several other powders that work... but if you want 357 SIG performance, the slower powders above work best....if you gonna...

    Loading 357 Sig

    They claim the 357 SIG head spaces on the mouth...it may occasionally... But 99% of the time it will headspace the shoulder... Been reloading for it since Glock started with the Model 31... Bullet choice is the main concern... use the bullets mentioned by Vaalpens....
