500 Handi Loads
« on: May 09, 2010, 05:42:27 AM »
I thought I had posted a question yesterday, but did not see it here. I am looking for light loads for a 440 gr Lee cast bullet, using Unique, Blue Dot, 2400, XMP 5744, or SR 4759. The range sought is 1100- 1300 fps approximately. I thought I remembered some being posted here earlier, but I cannot find them now. Thanks.

There's load data in John Taffin's report on the 500 Handi, there's a link to it in the FAQs.

I have not had much response so far, so I am going to talk to some of the Black Powder replica shooters. It seems to me that the 500 is very close in capacity etc. to the 50/70 Govt that I should certainly be able to use loads for the 50/70 replicas in a 500 Handi, as they all would by necessity be low pressure loads. ???
