    Load recipe question

    Hey Guys,

    I bought some Berry's 155 gr RNHB's off of a fellow calgunner, but cannot fing any load data for this bullet. Can anybody help? I am using Federal Small Pistol Primers and Unique powder. Need to make some loads for tomorrow.

    Thanks in advance!

    As I was just mentioning in another thread, if you don't have exact data available start 10% below maximum and work your way up looking for signs of pressure.

    BUT since these are plated bullets, you need a whole bunch by tomorrow, and won't have any time for testing I would just use the starting load for that bullet weight.

    Though I'm sure somebody here must be using your exact same combination and can post a good load to work with.

      caliber?

      If you can't find a particular bullet wt, use the charges for the next heaviest bullet weight and work up.

        They are 40S&W, he got them from me.

        Unique - Start with 7.2g, max is 8 for 155g FMJ according to Alliant.

        I would set OAL at 1.125"
