So a couple of range sessions with the 357 and being a low pressure case Im learning alot more than expected.......
Quickload revealed max ADI load is only 29K PSI in the Ruger !!, so my starting point was a bit light and the eratic pressures I experienced showed up on target.
left to right top row showing the light loads, bottom middle 16.4grs was the best group and accurate definitely improving, still only 32k PSI and under well under max.
Loads from yesterday going up to 17.2grs, more consistent and 5 shot groups now around 30mm, scope is only a Loop 1-4 illuminated and the fire dot covers about an inch at 50m
last groups had 4 going into 13mm then I did my usual thing lol, Quickload show pressure at 38K PSI and speed expected to be around 1900fps. more too come as Id like to get 2000fps.
When a guy is digging his own grave, you don’t fight him for the shovel.
Success leaves clues, Fools follow failure !
