That makes sense. It just frustrating on here sometimes because no matter where you look theres always conflicting opinions on the best powder/bullet combo. Other forums i read said that hs-6 was a great powder for the 40 and also a great powder for beginners to start with to not have to worry about blowing your gun up. So i honestly dont know where to start then lol

What exactly do you mean by wont achieve much? Like the gun will fire and everything and i just wont be getting everything out of it that i could be?

Because i was given 3 pounds of it as a gift and i would like to use it before i buy anymore if possible

Hi im new to reloading and purchased a glock 22 gen 3. I have not found any exact load data on the combo i suggested. The closest i can find is a 175gr lead bullet or a 180gr jacketed bullet. And from what im gathering from reading on here is that lead needs less of a charge so would the charges they recommend for those loads be a good starting point to begin with or should i back it off more than that and just work my way up until im satisfied
