357 B&D 1800 ssp load???
« on: November 07, 2012, 12:38:56 PM »
I just purchased some hornady 180 ssp bullets (.358 ). I was thinking of trying these in my 357 B&D. Anyone out there use these and what powder/load did you use?

I used some in my B&D before but all my data is in storage right now as we have moved and haven't closed on our house yet. I just had a Ruger 44 mag converted to 357 B&D and it shoots fanfrickingtastic with the 170 gr. Speer Gold Dot Soft point but it has been discontinued. The replacement Deep Curl Soft Point should be out soon. I have quite a few B&D guns. I really love this round.
