I shot some 357s yesterday. I came up with pretty decent loads. I loaded some 140ftx with aa#9 and some 200gr cast with h110.
Here are the loads:
140 ftx
Wspm primer
Worked up to 13.5gr of aa#9
Remington cases
Cases were standard length
(Primer real flat)
200 cpb
Wspm primer
Worked up to 11.5gr of h110
Winchester cases
(Primer not flat at all)
Here is the question. I want a definition of sticky extraction. What I mean by definition is, barely hang in the cylinder, hard to push out by hand, drive the cases out. I normally don't look at primers for pressure signs. But the 140's loaded in the remingtin brass look pretty flat. Could have something to do with the strange beveled primer pockets. No extrusion into the firing pin hole. The primers in the winchester brass looks very round. They both extracted with the push of my finger on the extractor rod. They came out with slight resistance. I was able to place them back into the cylinder with ease. But there was some resistance. Just want some input before working the 200's up further.
