Does Anyone Have a Recent Hornady Manual?

[Dipperman]

First things first, I know these are not real boolits, but they were FREE.

If anyone has a recent Hornady reloading manual that gives data for their 38 caliber, 180 grain, HP/XTP in the .357 Magnum, I would appreciate it very much if you could post some data. I would like to know the minimum and maximum loads for 2400 and H110. It would also be nice to know what they give for over all length.

Thanks in advance, I really appreciate the help.

No load data listed in the #7 Hornady book for jacketed 200swc. for the listed powders. For the lead 200 swc it list bullseye start@ 4.6-6.3 max. And for unique it list start@5.3-6.8 max. These are for the LEAD swaged Hornady swc. Use at your own risk. Bill

I would like to say when working up loads always always and I mean always start with the lightest load listed and work up from there. I always do this unless someone has the same fire arm and everything else the same and then I will still go down from there suggested loads 1.OGr if allowable and work up from there as a starting point. I load rounds to suit the weapon I am using for best accuracy. Speed never comes into it. what good is speed if you can not hit what you aim at lol. :)
