Hi all,
trying to work out some places to start loading lead projectiles for range work.
I have power pistol, bullseye, unique and win231 on hand.
I have 115grn, 124 &125grain, 135grain, and 145 & 147 grain projectiles on hand too.
If it makes any difference I plan to shoot them out of a sti targetmaster, a 9mm colt, and a beretta M9.
Data I have so far is looking something like:
115:
Power pistol: 5.0, 5.5
Bullseye: 4.0, 4.2, 4.5
Unique: 4.5
win231: 4.3
124/5 grain:
Power Pistol: 5.0, 5.5
bullseye: 3.8, 4.2
unique: 4.5, 5.0, 5.5
win231: 4.0
wst: 5.0
135 grain:
power pistol: 5.0
bullseye: 4.0
unique: 4.0
win231: 4.0
145/7 grain:
power pistol: 4.5
bullseye: 3.5, 3.8
unique: 3.8
win231: 3.4
I've gone through lymans manual now and have consulted other sources...one or two of the above are pushing it a bit, obviously i'll shoot the lower versions first where there are multiple loads and see how they go lowest to highest.
Lyman's latest manual wasnt that much help...but it did give a few start points.
