Howdy:
Due to the current craziness, I have not been able to find my favorite magnum powder, 2400. So I picked up some H110 and am planning some load development. I plan on shooting 240gr LSWC Hitek coated out of the .44 and 158gr LSWC Hitek coated out of the .357. The starting loads, when they appear, are not too far off the max loads.
.44Magnum 240gr LSWC
I was wondering how those of y'all with H110 experience did your load development. Lyman has only one grain of difference for the 240gr LSWC load. I feel kind of foolish moving up a piddly 0.2 or 0.3 grains (while using a scale good for +/- 0.1 grain). And then there is the Lee source that just states the one load and no starting load. I am used to taking larger leaps from starting to max load, finding the load that did best or the two that did best and then doing another round of development to zero in on the best.
Thank you all for your time.
