357 Maximum load data
I have a CVA Apex customize barrel (20") and am searching for some load data. I'll shoot the Hornady 180 gr SSP and the 158 XTP.
I have some Accurate 1680 data but would like to try some other recipes.
Anyone?

Check here:

They're handgun loads but they'll give you a start.

The old AA data below states the SAAMI MAP is 48kcup, but SAAMI's current spec is 40kpsi.

You might want to try some Hodgon Lil'Gun loadings. I have found in my two Maxi guns that Lil'Gun gives a little more velocity and from all indications slightly less pressure. Accuracy is top notch also. 1680 also did very well for me so as always your gun might be different.
