Loads for Rossi 92 - 357mag

[HighRoad]

I'm looking for some load data for my 357mag Rossi 92 - 20" barrel.
I presently cast with Lee 358-125-RF and 358-158-RF molds.
I also have ordered the Pat Marlin PB gascheck maker
And I have some 2400 powder.

So with these components:
- Lee 358-125-RF
- Lee 358-158-RF
- Plain Base Gas Checks
- 2400 powder

What recommendations do you have for 357 magnum plinking and hot loads.
50 yards is what I want to be accurate at

My hunting load is the Lee 158SWCGC over 14.0 grs 2400, and does 1.5-2" at 100 yds with my 20" Rossi, but I have taken a buck with the 158gr RFNPB over 7.0grs Unique out of a 4" revolver too, so you dont need to hot rod it as much as some would think. I can't help with the 125gr boolit as I haven't used it.

More info than a man will ever need.

I really love my Rossi leverguns.

Life is good
