Anyone have a good load with 124 gr JHPs and WSF?
Going to start loading again after a long break and have 8 lbs. of WSF that I need to put to good use that I would keep as a backup powder for when I couldn't get N340 or N330.
I seem to recall somewhere between 4.9 - 5.1 grains is the ticket, but can't find my old load data.
I have always used 5gr of WSF with precision delta 124gr JHPs as my standard load. I think it's a popular old IPSC formula. That bullet liked 1.100 OAL.Quote:

That sounds like exactly what I'm after. Thank you.Quote:

Ha, very true. I used to shoot...a lot. But hung it up for a while. IIRC my load was 4.9 - 5 grains I think and ran about 135-136 PF.Quote:

I don’t have a 124 grain load, but have had good results with 6.1 WSF and 115 JHP. Likely +P. With a 147 gr bullet, 4.0 WSF.
