i made some 125gr lead with 3.8gr, 4,1gr and, 4.4gr of hp-38. I shot 60 round of each. The data says i should have 3.9gr-4.4gr, w/ 125 lead. The problem is i am getting buildup all the way down my barrel. It happens with all 3 loads. I dont know if this is considered leading, but i beleave it is. I was just wondering what the cause - fix could be? I was thinking miss sized bullets. my gun is a taurus 24/7 9mm. thanks u'all 4 ur time!

well the i shot the 3.8 gr, 4.2 gr, and the 4.5 gr loads out of my taurus 24/7 got leading with all 3, what i think is leading anyway, took an extra 15 min of cleaning. Think it is the size of the lead that is causing the problem?

theres a indoor range in melbourne all pistol. and a outdoor range in indian river county, its nice, and cheap.

new scale, and a lee manual on the way. pulled 100 of the 200 bullets, gonna go put some .37 and .40 slot loads together now.

well i got 100 of the 200 done.wit the hammer style. it took like 30 min. not too bad. spilled a lil powder, but now i took care of a headach!.. i'll probally same a couple of the longer OAL(1.135") ones, to try at a later time.just ordered a new scale on e-bay of 15$, shipped from the u.s.a. that does 1/10 grains. not im gonna go do some LEE slot .37, and .40 loads!. thanks u'all again 4 ur time and help I doubt they would have a scale that measured in grains with a .1gr accuracy. www.midwayusa.com and brownells, cabelas will have what you need. Will it work? aaa.......yea if it does not break or make you crazy it will be slow soooooo good luck B

i see here in a min., u sure ur right, but the local reloading store said $55 for the cheapest beam and over $100 for digital..lol so i'm gonna look up there be 4 i order again from midway. is the hammer style puller gonna work for pulling 150 bullets? thanks I doubt they would have a scale that measured in grains with a .1gr accuracy. www.midwayusa.com and brownells, cabelas will have what you need.

Its a taurus pt 24/7, it anit no hi- point, but it anit no 1911, eather. I think my 24/7 pro ds will handle 4.9 of hp-38, but i think i'll make a few lighter loads 4.0 grains 4.2 grains, and work my way up, before i go and shoot a 4.9gr load. I'm gonna go to wally world and office depot and see what they have 4 scales. anyone of u have that quickloads program that could run tthis load? thanjks again everyone

the scale on hand only goes in full grains, kinda messed that up. going to get a new one now so i know exactly what i have, to the 1/10 grain. I have read through a couple manuals but returned them to there owner. i will get a few. Let me start by saying I am not trying to be argumentative or a jerk. The net does not have manuals. The net has some data. You NEED a good reloading manual and you need to read it. Not just the data, the manual itself. There is valuable information that could save your gun, your hands, maybe even your life. Reloading is nothing to "lol" about. The average of the data I have on hand shows 4.4gr as the max charge of W231 for a 125gr lead bullet. You say yours are loaded 4.5-5gr? Why did you start above the max charge? My 125gr lead load is 4.2gr of W231, FWIW. Pull those rounds. Read a good manual. Please.

THANK U'ALL 4 UR HELP.I think i'll just put these rounds away, and figure out what do do later. Some people say there fine otheres say u pushing it. I'll make some new rounds @ 4 gr hp-38- 125lead - oal 1.125. i shouldn't have any problems with that. thanks again.

well my buddy shoot 2 rd, they shot fine, just extra loud. he said there fine.lol. my gun say not rated for +p ammo, and i think this might be +p, so i'll be safe rather than sorry. shootin 2 bullets is one thing, but shootin 100 in a row would probally cause some problems, righ or wrong?

i have the net, the net has most manuals. i think its too much. but i dont know if .4 of a grain is that much. lol but it cant hurt to ask before i pull em. it say 3.9-4.4 with lead.

i m new, and overloaded and dont wanna shoot till i know whats good

i bought one, lol but it only does full grains. so i dont know to the point. so i could be on 3.9 grains and only see 3 or 4.9grains and only see 4 grains.

i ment .46.. my scale only works in full grains. in the .43 slot i was getting 3grains. and in the .46 slot i was getting 4grains. but i dont know to the point.

i am trying to get 4 grains of hp-38 powder. i think i should be useing the lee .40, .43, or, .46 disk, but my scale is not working properly. anyone using hp-38 powder with a lee reloader disks? if so, how much gains does.40, .43, and .46 slot toss out? thank u 4 looking!

anyone using theses? i was wondering how. many grains the disks are tossing out. i think i need the .40, .43, or .46 disk to get 4 grains. but idk. any o0ne can help? thanks nick

i started with the .43 slot and then went up to the .46 slot, my scale only does full grains. i think i might have put to much powder in. any know use hp-38 or w231 and lee disks know how mush powder they toss out? thanks
