The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Try 3.5gn to start for the .38-very firm roll crimp. What gauge SG? OLG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driftwood Johnson, SASS #38283 Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Why not try looking on the Alliant website? They don't list a load for 105 grains, but they do for 110 grains. http://www.alliantpowder.com/reloaders/recipedetail.aspx?gtypeid=1&weight=110&shellid=26&bulletid=31 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ripsaw Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 the reason you don't see load data for Unique and 105g bullets is because it is not a recommended combination. Can it be made to work, yes. Do you really want to make it work, probably not. It is too slow of a powder for that bullet. If you do use it, expect incomplete combustion and inconsistent performance. Find a faster powder such as Clays, 700x, Bullseye, Red Dot or other fast powders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
