I have shortened a bunch of .357 Max cases to .360 DW lenght to use in my NEF Handi Rifle. Anyone have any loading data for this round it seems to be hard to find. Right now I'm using Max .357 loads but know they could be improved on. Thanks....

Lucky you that you have found .357Max brass that you could trim to .360DW length for use in your Handi-rifle .357. I have been "making do" using regular .357 mag brass and 108 and 215 grain boolits seated way out to make contact with the Handi-rifle throat. My best velocity and accuracy has been using WC680 (similar to AA1680) seated out to contact the rifling leade. Definitely in .357Max territory with 1800 fps and 2moa accuracy at 100 yards. I am using WDWW alloy, Gas-check design, and LBT "blue" lube.
