Has anyone had experience using blue dot for 357 magnum loads. I am using it with hornady xtp 125 gn projectiles. All the load data provided by blue dot is for speer 110 gn and then it jumps to 140 gn. I am in belief that using load data for a 125 gn copper jacketed,not specified xtp, is safe for the xtp, but I would much appreciate the accounts of experience before proceeding. Current load I am going to work with has a starting load of 13.1 gn Blue dot,with a never exceed of 14.5 gn.
Also maybe a stupid question, When to use magnum primers. What I've read in manuals says to never use magnum primers unless load data specifically shows it. However I am yet to run across any load data that specifies its' use. When does the magnum primers come into use?
I apologize for the title. Fast typing results in misspelled words.
