Lookin for a 185 gr. cast gc bullet load for my 357 mag, using h110. I have a lot of load data, but none for this load. I dont have a crono, and would greatly appreciate velocities if ya got em! Thanks for any replies! :D

Gallahad,
I am shooting the Lyman 358429 which weighs in at 170+ grains and I am using .5 grain over the listed maximum charge in a Hodgdon manual.  Regardless, I am getting average 1247 fps from a 6" Security-Six Ruger.  You could PROBABLY start with 170 grain starting loads, but be careful as this H-110 doesn't like to be reduced much, or at least that is what it is advertised to be.  I posted to just give you an idea of velocity of bullets in that weight range and H-110 powder.  Good-luck...BCB
