    I show 2.7 starting for a speer jacketed. I tried 2.6 under my 95 grain Lee cast but accuracy wasn't great.

    I use 2.0 to 2.3 grains of titegroup under a 102 lnr,shoots good will kill raccoon size animals with no problems.
    Are my kids/grandkids more important than "o"'s kids, to me they are,darn tooting they are!!! They deserve the same armed protection afforded "o"'s kids.
    I have been hoodwinked but not by"o"
    In God we trust,in "o" never trust

    I tried 2.8 under the Lee 356-102 in my LCP the other day. I think it was having pressure spikes as the velocity spread was 803 to 891 fps. Great 9mm powder, never did have a whole lot of success with it in .38 Special or other low pressure cartridges.
    Currently casting and loading: .32 Auto, .380 Auto, .38 Special, 9X19, .357 Magnum, .257 Roberts, 6.5 Creedmoor, .30 WCF, .308 WCF, .45-70.

    Anything under 3.5 leaves me using a lee dipper and scales to measure powder. My Auto disc only goes down to 3.5 grains. I suppose this might be an excuse to buy an Auto drum PM.

    Take a look at this, was my solution to needing smaller charges.
