4.2 gr of Red Dot and H&G 68 gives me 2" groups at 50 yards from sandbags with my Les Baer Bullseye model. I see no reason to switch! I use 3.7 gr for my Timed and Rapid fire loads.

Since 1976 I've had: '70 Bronco, '73 Wagoneer, '46 CJ2A, '70 CJ5, '97 TJ that I kept for 18 years. Did a little bit of everything with and to that TJ, including dropping a 5.7 Hemi in it. Been...

Seems like all the powder companies have good on-line reloading data for their current powders. My two favorites for the 10mm are Longshot for the heavier loads (I can hit about 1250 fps with 180s...

I use 3.7 gr Red Dot for the 25 yard line and 4.2 gr Red Dot for the 50 yard line in Bullseye matches. That 4.2 gr load shoots 2" at 50 yards from sandbags in my Les Baer Bullseye. So the only...

Dan and TX, looks like you pretty much have it! I've buggered up too many cases doing a heavy roll crimp on a hunting load while doing both at the same time. I bought a Dillon crip die, but if you...

All good advice ^^^. I was trying to come up with a good discription of too heavy of crimp, and I think leftiye has it right in post #3. Good job on deciding to seat and crimp in seperate steps.

Of the powders listed, I'd start with Power Pistol. You must have the data on it. My favorite heavy load 10mm powder is Longshot, accurate and good velocity. 296 is too slow. Some like Blue Dot...

I'll second Universal Clays. I like it enough that I just bought an 8lb jug. Comparing data between the two, some loads are identical, some not. You'd want to go by the book, regardless.

I was going to suggest WC820 or WC 297, but I see neither Pat's nor Bartlett's have either one. Both have a burn rate similar to H-110/296. Other than AA#9 or 4227, Longshot might be another powder...

Hodgdon does not list .44 mag loads with Titewad. It's a pretty fast powder. clays is fast, also, but at least they list data for it. I personally don't like small charges of fast powder in the...

Nobody here mentioned extermination that I saw. But a well regulated hunting season may give them back a fear of man (which they truely should have), and won't affect the population near as much as...

I went to an active shooter class a couple weeks ago. The guy was knowledgeable and has an impressive list of credentials. He had the DHS brochure as part of his written info. What it said to me...

Well, whatever you do, don't tell him there are actually people who make their own boolets, too! :roll:

I know it's not the same, but I use 3.7 gr of RED dot for timed and rapid fire and 4.2 of red dot for the 50 yard line. That 4.2 load will shoot 2" off of sandbags at 50 yards out of my Les Baer...

I've ended up using Red Dot as my standard .45acp load for Bullseye. With a 200 gr SWC, 4.2 gr is my 50 yard slow fire load, and 3.7 gr is my 25 yard timed and rapid fire load. Both function...

FYI, I run a Lyman 429215 cast with wheelweights up to about 1200+fps to match recoil of the Winchester 210 gr Silvertip factory load. No leading (it IS gas checked) and gives a nice, pleasently...

I was in the basement the other night getting out my .44 mag hunting loads and reviewed exactly what I was loading for my mid-range loads. I have been using 8.0 to 8.8 gr Universal for my mid-range...

I use 3.7 gr Red Dot for timed and rapid fire bullseye loads and 4.2 gr Red Dot for the 50 yard slow fire -- both with SWC boolits and I get excellent accuracy. I would think 4.2 would work well...

BTW, we have a local product called Steve's Pepper Sauce that goes great on words! :-D

I have a 10mm Delta EliteBut have not gotten to the point of "loading for bear". Future plans call for a 200 gr WFN loaded to 1200fps. Without looking, I believe both BB and DoubleTap have what...

I have a .44, not a .41. I hunt with a 300 gr. LWN at 1350 fps, but it is certianly not an every day carry load.8-)

Well, I still have a couple three boxes of 7mm 175s and I'd just as soon load them up in my 7mm mag with $10/lb powder. Same kinda deal with my Swede. I sure like shooting twice as much for half as...

Wow, this one's still going. . .

A critter -- two legged or four -- will probably not know the difference if it was shot with a .357, 10mm or .41 mag, if all three are using the same type of...

works well in 6.5 Swede, also. Wish I could find a few lbs for $6!!! Nice find!

The 180 gr data will be a slightly smaller powder charge than one for a 165. So I'd say it's a safety thing. Better to work your way up.
