OK

Magic search didn't pay off this time :blink: .

I picked up a new Lee 145 Gr. Bullet mold for minor and can't find any data for the powder I want to run.

Anyone running a 145 Gr. Lead bullet with WST for minor?

No 145's but try 3.8gr of WST and work up or down. WST load data is very close to 231 just drop a .2 to be safe.

I took one of the Lee 6 cavity .40 175 TCL moulds and milled down to top so it now makes a nice 150 gr. TCL bullet.

That bullet with 4.3 gr. of WST out of a 5" Eagle gave me a 10 shot average of 930.5 fps for a 139 PF.

To keep my reloading setup the same I decided to try my major load of 4.8 gr of WST under the 145 gr. bullet. I took it to the range today and it ran fine in my M&P Pro 5", next I will have to bring out the chrono and see how it performs.
