I have been working on some loads for my .357 for the last month and finally got it right. Both are .38 rounds and one is for my wife and the other for me. With a MP 359-125 beagled to drop .360 I used an alloy of 20-1 with 2.5 grains of B.E. behind it. It is for my wife to shoot. Very mild. The other is MP 359-640 with 3.5 grains of B.E. using an alloy of WW with 2% tin. Very nice load. I found a plastic loading tray, 51 pieces of 30 carbine brass, 12 pieces of .45 brass and 15 pieces of .223 brass. I almost froze my hands but it was worth it. Temperature was 19 deg.

I had a great day at the range also but it was a club working bee. Lots of fixing and mowing and tweaking etc.
