Just picked up a 3" SP101 to go with my 6" GP100. I'm looking for the right combination of bullet and powder to minimize leading. Ideally, would like a 38 +P and a mid+357 Mag load.
All loads will be loaded in 357 Mag cases.
Powders: I've got Bullseye, 231, Unique, Power Pistol, Blue Dot, and 2400.
Bullets: 158gr LSWC 357 Action and 38 Match from MBC.
I had some 2400 with 13.0, 13.5, and 14gr with the 357 Action and I got too much leading. Yes, this was hotter than I am looking for but it's what I had loaded. Was thinking about dropping it down to 12.0gr and see if any better?
Anyone have suggestions for low leading combinations using the above? I'm tired from brushing out lead, and I didn't have much luck using a Chore Boy. Kept, coming apart.
