Reeder Custom Guns - Rainy Day Reloading

Spending some time in the shop, loading a bit of ammo for the upcoming CSA. Right now I am loading .357 Magnums using the heavy Keith bullet over 14.5 gr. of 2400. I believe the bullet is Saeco's copy .. 170 gr.

60 years ago I was using this same load with rifle primers in the Ruger .357 Blackhawk my Dad bought me. It worked well on everything I shot with it.

Lil’gun is amazing in that caliber (heeding a bit of caution of erosion from Bob Baker) garnering 1400 fps from a 4” barrel! The FNGC is slippery and fast! A friend shot through several 150-250# little hogs with it. None stopped any of the bullets, one bang, two holes!

I’ve also been playing with a 6-7 gr. Charge of Longshot for a moderate 1000-1200 fps load.

The 358429 bullet shoots very well in my Taurus Raging 357

It has always performed well for me.

always a good bullet for .357`s.............

Seems in actual .357 (.356 GNR) I shoot 180s

that was my first mold when I started reloading using 13.5
