    .30 Luger load

    Here's one that will let you use up the last of that SR 4756. Put 5.2 grains of it (that's what my Little Dandy throws with a #9 rotor, the way I manipulate it) under the Accurate Molds 31-088BG gas checked SWC bullet. Use a Lee die to crimp the case mouth about half way up the front band, for a COL of 1.120". Gives 1100 fps from a 4" barrel.

    If you are intrigued by the bullet but don't have the powder, substitute 4.4 grains of Herco in the same Little Dandy rotor for around 50 fps less, or drop back to rotor #8 with 4.3 grains of Unique for nearly 100 fps more. You will be hard pressed to tell the difference between any of them.
