357 Max Pet Loads?
My copy of Ken Waters "Pet loads" is an older one and doesn't have any pet loads for the 357 Maximum in it. Does anyone know if Ken ever did a Pet loads report on the Max? If so, does anyone have a copy?
I really like Ken's approach to the pet load series.

thanks in advance,

No, but he should have.

I like 22 grains of H4227 with a 180 bullet....also, 20 grs of H110 with a 200 has proven accurate.

Eugene,

The most accurate load I fired in that barrel was the 200 gr cast bullet I provided, and a compressed load of RL-7, they all went into one hole @ 50 yds, and it is a mild load, clocking barely over 1500 fps. I'll have to check my notes to see exactly what the charge was.

I also loaded up various plinker loads with 158 gr cast over mild charges of Red dot and Unique, but none of them was a standout. I'll have to check my notes on them as well.
