Thanks for all the info Bamboo that sounds like a good approach for me to take.

That is some great info to start with. Thank You! There is a load in there for 180 gr lead. with GM3 Is it safe to say that it would a good starting point for a plated bullet?

@ Steve RA - I saw the data in the link but am wondering if anyone has a specific load in for for a plated 180 gr. Couldn't find one in their data. I'm not competition shooting so would be willing to change bullet weights. Shooting a Sig 239.

I recently started reloading for shotgun with some of the Nobel Sport Powders (AS, GM3 and Prima V) Is anyone aware of any info. for loading these in a .40? I'm shooting 180 gr Berry's plated bullets now. Thanks

Thanks for the info. Shooting a Sig 239

Thanks for the info.!

Looking for a load suggestion for .40 165gr Berry using Unique. Not competing just looking for a suggestion for components I have on hand. Thanks

Okay thanks

Any suggestions for a .40 load using Clat Dot and 155 gr Berry bullets? Was using Clays but since it was unavailable switched to Clay Dot.

Thanks Rick

Thanks will look into a new button. Just received some Redding dry neck lube for cases in the convenience pack and will give it a try.

I called Redding and they are sending me some Imperial case lube. Great people to deal with! It was my own once fired Lapua brass. I've been using RCBS dies and switched to Redding. RCBS worked fine on prior brass. Tolerances must be tighter on Redding, that's one reason why I moved up. Thanks for the comments.

I just bought a Redding FL die in .308 and tried running one of my fired cases through it and it is VERY tight!!!! Didn't run it down all the way because it didn't seem right I ran a brand new Lapua through it and it cycled fine. Any suggestions????

Does anyone have any experience loading Nitro 100 in .40? Good or bad? Considering it.

Is there any harm to storing these materials in a ammo can with packs of silica beads? Very humid here in the summer.

New to the forum and hand loading. Interests are .40 hand loads, rifle and shotgun. Looking forward to all the new info.
