I have a beautiful 102gr soft cast hollow point boolit but I'm having a hard time finding good data to launch this thing.
Today I used 2.2gr of Tightgroup which is the max load in my Lyman cast book. The first round felt like a squib, it wasn't, just no recoil or power. The shells had soot around them from not sealing the chamber.
I'm using a S&W titanium J-frame, not an old H&R revolver. All I'm looking for is similar power as my 100gr XTP's which I can load much hotter using Hornady data.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
