I’ve recently started loading for a .357mag carbine and am seeing some load data that goes against what I’ve read about H110/296. It has always been my understanding that this powder needs a near full to compressed load for reliable function. With a 158gr bullet Hodgdon lists a starting charge of 15gr and a max of 16.7gr. Speer lists a start of 13.9gr and a max of 15.5gr. Then theres Hornady with their start load of 8.6gr and a max of 15.5gr. Hornady’s pistol data seems more in line with Speer’s with a start load of 12.7.
Have any of you had any experience with these, seemingly, very light .357 loads?
