357 Mag suggested loading

Post by LiscioG »

Gents,

Please recommend the best 357 mag load you have for a FA revolver - 9" barrel. I'm debating between the 158 gr and 180 gr bullet. Most seem to like H110 powder and Starline brass.

Thank'ee

FA 9” barrel hornady 180 xtp. 16 grains hodgdon h-110 in Starline brass is my load. I believe the 158 hornady would leave a ram once in a while. wheelgun7360

I use 296, but everything else is what Alan said. The 180 on all targets.
