I'm loading .357 magnum for the first time (have only loaded .38spl previously). To be used in a Marlin 1894c. This load is for a 110 gr. JHP made by Sierra and is from the Sierra Manual, using 18.2gr of H 110.
I also loaded some 125g JHP with a 17.5 and 18.0 gr load.
Man this looks stout. After loading only .38 and seeing all that powder going into the case I'm a little spooked.
Sierra's manual shows no loads lighter than this for H 110.
I'm looking for a target load, and these look like hunting loads.
If you'd like to share an accuracy load for the 357 in this rifle, I'm all ears.
Thanks for your help
