Whats your 357mag mid load "go to" powder for 158grLSWC with about #2 alloy bhn?
I have been using 2400 and Unique for a long time and here are the reasons I'm looking for a new powder suggestion.
2400 is good but dirty and I get allot of unburnt debris. I know I can work most of that out but I would prefer to try something new.
Unique is a fantastic powder but it is more of a pain to measure. I use a Redding 3B powder dispenser and I have to use the large diameter universal insert to help cut it and that insert makes a more erratic weight changes when using so little powder. When I use the small diameter pistol powder insert it measures just as bad and it is harder to cut. (more force needed)
What powder do you like to use for a 357mag mid load 158LSWC ?
