SWC in a 380

[Slick Pilot]

Does anyone shoot the Lee 358-105-SWC in a 380 auto? If so, what powders are you using and how much?

Thanks.

i do use the 105swc sized .356 in a taurus pt58 i use 4 grns of unique seems to work great. here are some load data sights that have been helpful to me http://castpics.net/dpl/,http://handloads.com/loaddata/default.asp hope this helps.

Lee 105 SWC worked great in a Browning 380 - 1971 model. 2.7 grains worked in the Browning. Very acurate.

sorry i messed up the links here they are http://handloads.com/loaddata/default.asp and the other is
http://castpics.net/project2/CastDatalist.php you may also try the powder makers as there list is quite large. by the way 4 grns of unique is about max you may want to start somewhat lower

I do. Seat just shorter than to the crimp groove, lightly crimp. I use 2.7gr HP38 or 2.5gr Bullseye.
I'm shooting them in a S&W BodyGuard.
Sized .356", shoot better than factory ammo!

Sorry, that was 2.7 grains HP38 in the Browning,like GOOSEGESTAPO, much more accurate than factory, also .356

I've shot them in the .380. Very accurate, as mentioned. May pose feeding problems. 2.5 grains of Bullseye.

My Ruger LCP chokes on them, as does my old Colt Mustang Pocketlite but my Beretta 84 works ok. I had poor results in my 9mm's with this boolit.

My Hi-Point loved them. My SIG choked on them. Go figure.
