Load help for steel challenge

[cyburg]

I am currently shooting

8.4 3n37 with a pf of 173

124 g MG

starline brass

srp cci

where should I start for this?

Thanks for any help.

Ok, maybe I should ask what loads is everyone shooting for steel changes. I also forgot to mention I am shooting a 38 super comp.

You can probably drop that load up to a couple of grains , any more than that and it might not burn clean.Spring it down some and see what happens.

One of my friends usually shoots a 125 gr JHP for USPSA and just substitutes a 95 gr jacketed bullet for SC and leaves the powder charge the same. The other one shoots a 124 FMJ for USPSA and subs a 115gr JHP for SC with the same powder charge. Both loads shoot flat and soft.

what james said, if your using the same components, drop the powder charge by a couple grains and re-spring the gun down

i was using a 125 gr lead bullet and somthing like 4??? grains of wst, spring in the gun was maybe a 8 lb???

Try 4 grains of straight Clays, with a small pistol primer. It's like shooting a .22.

NRA AP loads will also work. My daughter shoots a 125gr Zero with 4.0gr of Titegroup. Very little recoil, but for SC I up the load to 4.5gr TG over a 115gr and it cysles slick and soft.

OAL is 1.2" with a JHP. 38Super, Federal Small Pistol Primer.

I'm shooting 5.0 of N320 with a 115 MG JHP at 1.240" OAL. With this load I can use the exact same spring setup in my STI Trubore that I use for major loads (9# standard recoil spring).
