So I just got a new Marlin 1894c .357/38 carbine.
I've run some 158 jsp's over 15gr of 2400 thru it already. Initial group sizes were not bad imo, but I'd like input from those with experience here.
My 2400 stock is running low and I will be buying more, or trying something different. In the past I've only been loading this caliber (357) for revolvers. Pretty much had settled on Bullseye and 2400.
Did some searching and found a few carbine related references to Hodgdons Lil 'Gun. I plan on shooting everything from lead, to hard cast, to jacketed with this rifle, and will stick mostly to the 158gr weight.
So please, your opinions on good carbine loads in .357magnum, 18 inch barrel. I'd like to hear it all.
