I just got 100 new Starline cases today and I am waiting for the bullets (100gr LRN). When I get all of my components I'm going to work up a few loads for my Sig 232.
While I've never loaded the .380 I do load .45acp (and other calibers). My question is:
The basics appear the same for the .380 as for the .45acp. If I make sure my charge weights are accurate, the OAL is within specs, and the crimp is right is there anything "special" or "unique" about the .380 that I should watch for?
I'll be using W231 and will stay close to middle range of load weights.
