I already have data using 2400, 4227, Unique and 5744 powders. I am looking for data using 1680, Lil'Gun, 4759, 296, H110 and Alliant Steel in the .351 using a 180gr cast bullet. Any ideas? /Chris

I been using 18 gr of h110 with a 200 cast....operates the action just fine. I would guess that is a good place to start with the 180 and increase charge until it functions the action of the m1907 reliably...Bore diameters vary a lot on these rifles so its not a bad idea to check yours. Good luck and be safe

Funny thing...the 357mag is rated at 35Kpsi, the 357max is rated at 48Kpsi. For case capacity, the .351 is inbetween the two. The accuracy loads for the .351 are 19.gr of 2400 and 19.5gr of 4227 with a 180gr bullet.
Yet the max load data per Lyman with a 180gr bullet in the 357max goes like this....15.2gr 2400, 17.0gr 4227 and 18.0gr H110 with the same 180gr bullet. /Chris
