Lil gun and the 357 max
« on: November 18, 2010, 12:05:35 PM »
Does anyone use lil gun in the 357 maxi.  I see its a smiggin faster than w296 or h110, but other than that don't know anything about it.  Any feedback appreciated.

There are a lot of guys that love it for mag pistol rounds as well as the Hornet & K-Hornet , myself , I find it to just be too picky for my taste , it can cause some nasty pressure swings just like H-110 / Win 296 does only worse .

I'm shooting 180 XTP bullets in my 14" Maximum. Tried H110 and Lil'Gun, but I like 1680 for consistancy.
Get around 4.5 fps SD at 1775 fps velocity and cloverleaf 3-shot groups @ 100yds. Sure will whack a deer.
Been wanting to try 200 gn. hard cast, but I can't figure out why.

Have fun,
