Greetings,
My bullets are Zero 158 grains JSP.
I need data for Accurate #9
The accurate manual just gives data for the XTP and SWC. Could I go with the XTP data:
No. 9 13.5 (1293 ft/sec) to 15.0 (1470 ft/sec) pressure:44900 1.580" COAL
The Speer manual #14 says:
TMJ FN/ UCHP/GDHP/UCSP (Ihave no idea what those bullets are except by looking at the picture)
12.3 grains to 13.7 grains (1052 ft/sec to 1136 ft/sec)
COAL 1.570
I have another source that says for JHP bullets:
11.7 grains to 13.0 grains (The ft/sec is only available for the 13.0 grains at 1305) for a coal 1.58.
I found out the min/max is 1.540/1.590 for a .357 mag cartridge.
So, anyone can confirm of a min/max load in grains for accurate #9 and a max OAL?
I just does not want to make a major mistake. Better to be safe than sorry.
Thank you
