I know, It is not cast but it is a bit different so I thought that this was up the alley of this group.

Looking for some load data for 7.65 Arg using some Hornady 32 cal (.312) 85 gr XTP pistol bullets. I was thinking something like 8-10 gr of unique.

Thoughts??


Thanks

10grs of unique with that same bullet is fine in my Lee-Enfield 303 Brit. I don't see any problem with that load.

I also use 8 gr of Red Dot to good effect. Nice 50 yard plinker for the kids or a good Rabbit Load.

With that light of a bullet, no worries- you could probably do 15 or 20 gr of Unique without issue. Not that I'd try it mind you- but if 10 gr is fine for a 160... well you see where I'm going.
