ysrracer Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 All the recipes I find are for the same powder I was using 30 years ago (when I stopped reloading). What's the new powder all the cool kids are using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatJones Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I still use Unique in 38 special. I like to use a bulky enough powder that I would notice a double charge. Many of the cool new powders use pretty small charge weights and volumes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcc7x7 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I was using Clay Dot but honestly not any better than BE or Unique Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg in VA Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Tightgroup is good but a little dirty, VV N320 is awesome and very clean it’s down fall is price, WST is good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toolguy Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I'm using 6.5 grains of Power Pistol with a 125 Zero JHP with super good accuracy. That is about 132 PF. I have never got a plated bullet to shoot a decent group in any of my guns. All other kinds of bullet will do fine. YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatJones Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 I had some undersized plated bullets pull under recoil. Never tied up the cylinder, but cast bullets solved that problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodrow Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 I like the Ramshot Competition. I have great success with it for 38spl and 38 short colt. It also charges my production loads, 40 major & minor, 45acp, 12ga for clay shootin and more.Sent from my moto g(7) power using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
