Chesterpulley, or others. Do you think 48 grains of 3031, with a 275 grain cast in Lyman #2 with a cci 200 primer is too low of a starting point? I do not have access to the new Handloader article. Using my Ideal hand loading press limits my options, but it is what it is. Btw, the gun has a new barrel so the rifleing is good. Not sure of the twist rate.
