My shooting buddy wants to try some of my 358156's in his T/C Contender 10" 357 Herret barrel. He currently uses H322 for his jacketed loads. The only data I can find is with H4227. Any other suggestions on cannister powder and starting loads? Figure I will use hardened WW's and LBT lube if he wants to go fast.

I just grabbed my TC load manual. Powders listed under the Lyman bullets, weights from 121-168 are Unique, 2400, SR4759 and 2400.
Under RCBS selection with weights running from 148-175 are IMR 4227,2400, 296, H110, SR4756 and R-7.

Lymans 358156 data in a 10" TC
Unique Start 9.0 Max 12.8 fps 1652
2400 " 15.5 " 19.5 " 1822
SR4759 " 17.5 " * 21.0 " 1722 (*potentially most accurate)
IMR 4227 " 17.0 " 20.5 " 1659


This is all asper Lyman. I double checked for typos on my part but use at your discretion.
