Alliant Bullseye?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G930A using Tapatalk
Alliant's site shows 5.7 grs for a 110gr jhp around 1000 fps. That recipe will work with the 105 Lee.
That's a good bullet and I run it at that speed with Bullseye.

I noticed we didn't mention cartridge. I'm talking about .38 special.

Ok I wasn't sure if the five grains would matter on the lee bullet being it is swc compared to jhp
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G900A using Tapatalk
No, it won't matter. Loads for the heavier bullet will push the light bullet about the same speed at less pressure. IME.

It really helps if ya add as many details as ya can for folks to know what you are trying to do. Posting the firearm you are using , maker, caliber, barrel length, powder type, bullet/boolit grains, and even the mold if you are casting the boolits.
The more info the more accurate the info in the replies.
Here is a link to the Alliant Reloaders guide. You can read it online, download it for later, or do also, like I did & have them send you a copy.

Yeah, details details details
This bullet works very well in wheel guns but can give problems in some bolt actions, especially if you're loading .38 spl for a .357 mag bolt gun.
My firearms project blog
Yes, but you can run this boolits in 9mm, 357 mag,38 sp , so I was trying to find out if any one worked out a load that was the goldilocks load that was just right, instead of being to hot, or to cold, I'm fairly new to reloading shells and allient shows max loads for there products on that pdf, instead of showing min loads and max loads.
You can try looking thru these for the loads that you seek:

Might I suggest that you buy a reloading manual, if you have not already.
& like I said, along with others. Provide more details & you might find more answers.
P.S. - when you see only Max loads listed, and you will see that in the manufacturers load data sometimes. You can usually take the Max load & reduce it by 10% & then you will be below Max & likely in a good place to work around +/- without concern. For example, if 3.0 Gr. of BE-86 is listed as the max. for your projectile, then you can subtract 10%, or .3gr from the 3.0 & work with 2.7gr of BE-86 without concern for exceeding max. That is about as simple as I am going to try to explain right now. This site is full of info, read as much as ya can & you will gain the knowledge as ya go. G'Luck!

Sure! I think most everyone here will help out most of the time if they can.

I load this bullet sized to .356 with 4.7gr BE, for my son's 9mm Ruger. I use 45-45-10 tumble lube on the 105 bullet. Same bullet for my two 380's using 3.0gr BE.

JR9178 welcome to the CB forum. Lots of good folks here and many decades of knowledge.
Safty is of the most importance. JBin MN give you really good advice and I'll add to it that you need to READ,READ,READ and WORK UP YOUR OWN LOADS !!
The "MOST BESTIET LOAD" ( sarcastism) in my,his,joes,bubbas firearm will NOT be the best for your firearm till you work up to that a see what YOUR firearm likes.
A starting load should be a safe load below max. DOUBLE CHECK all data before you load up a bunch. These are YOUR firearms and YOUR EYES andFINGERS that you need to protect.
To much crimp, less OAL, etc.. can raise pressures to a devestating level that only YOU can control.
Find some good reloading manuals, 2 at least and recheck all data before you do your loading.
ASK ALL the questions you want and everyone here will offer help fer sure. There are no stupid questions except the one you didn't ask.
I'm not being harsh. Not scaring you, just passing along the good words that got me this far without having any real mishaps. Please be safe always.
Safe loading, let us know how you make out with your reloading sir.

I’ve loaded BE-86 in 9mm, 45 Colt and 7.62x25 Tokarev. It will happen in 38 special too at some point. Really like the powder but there is not a lot of data out there yet. I’ve posted some loads with it which you can probably spot by searching for BE-86.
