I just got done loading some .380 rounds with 88gr Remington HP behind 3.8gr Unique with an OAL of 0.975. These were fired from a Sig P230 and Chronographed with a temperature of 33. The shot data was from 20 shots within 2 minutes.
Ave-------918 FPS
SD--------77
Hi---------1045
Lo---------758
ES---------289
My question is this.... Should I keep this load or refine it? The gun cycles with no problems and this will be for basic target practice/plinking. I have a Dillon 550b and Unique does not meter through it as well as I like, I think this may have caused the SD elevation. According to the Second Edition of Lee, the load starting and never exceeding is 4.0 with Unique. The book FPS is 920
.380 is kind of a PIA to load so I would GREATLY appreciate any suggestions.
These are the powders I have on hand if anybody has loaded a similiar load with Remington 88HP.
Unique
Universal
