sounds like the Bayou 160's win the poll and I have TG powder need to get Starline brass ordered I picked up a 1000 Federal primers today at the gun show to start out going to try some with Winchester primers see if they work ok ( have a pile of them ) Thanks for all the input on loads for this case Ron

mine shoots great I use a 125 rn full plated bullet with 3.8 gr. of red dot powder kind of a light load buy runs great Ron
-
with any luck I may have mine all up and running in a few weeks maybe you can show up at crossroads next month and show that baby off I still may pick up a 929 but not this year lol Ron
-
looks like most are the using the 160 gr. Bayou bullets any reason ? more knock down power on steel or just more of a forgiving bullet for the twist rate understanding your gun makes you a better shooter. and at 62 and a new shooter I need all the help I can get Ron
-
Again thanks for all the load info. This is all very helpful for me Ron
-
