I have loaded 350 grain plated, jacketed, and cast lead swc’s with 16.0 grains of Hodgdon Titegroup. Good shooting rounds out of my 8 3/8” 500 S & W wheelgun. I’ve also loaded 325 grain Speer uni-cor HP’s and 300 grain Hornady FTX’s with 42.0 grains of Hodgdon Lil Gun. These loads were very stout. Not sure what you’re hunting, but seems to me the 300 grain FTX would scream out an 18” barrel pretty good. I will be interested in your loads and results, and overall opinion of the rifle when you finally get it. Happy shooting! Doc_Holidude Livin ain’t killed me yet, but it’s workin on it!
