.40,180gr lead, Clays


Trader

Recommended Posts

No need for major pf here. I have a lot of Clays and a bunch of 180gr bullets I would like to use up. Gun is STI with Bull barrel. I cant find where I recorded what I loaded a while back. I have 4 loading manuals that offered no help.

I think I loaded 4.0 gr Clays with this bullet , loaded to 1.190 oal.  Can anyone sanction this combination?

Thanks

Trader,

Clays is wonderful for minor pf like steel load. Very soft.

I have used 3.0  to 3.5 grains with a 135gr for SC and it was nice and soft and flat.

For a 180, start with 3.2 @ 1.125 and ckeck for pressure signs. If none, you are good to go.
