MrMuscleBilly Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 (edited) Hey guys I ordered some Hornady Action Pistol (HAP) Bullets and I am wondering if you guys have any good load data info. I assume I would load it the same as a 230 FMJ or would I? I am currently using the winchester super target(WST) as my current pistol powder, but I am open to trying others as well. Right now I'm shooting IDPA and I want to make the 165,000 power factor. Thanks and hope to hear some good input.
