new to hardcast reloading
« on: March 09, 2004, 03:48:14 AM »
I posted question earlier to hardcast forum... i'm having a difficult time finding load data for different hardcast bullets...  primarily for meister 180 grain RN/FP in 44 mag.  i'm also interested in loading hardcast for the .357/.38.  My intention is to have a good, economical plinking load that is easy on the gun.   Am I on the right track?  Any suggestions for resources?
