Hey guys I got a question. I'm new to reloading and with the shortages Moscow thought i would start to save some money. Me and my dad bought some Winchester 115 gr FMJ and 165gr FMJ 40s&w rounds purely because they were cheap. I had planned on reloading nosler rounds because that's what I had the most information on and that load called for Blue Dot powder which I already had. My question is I'm having trouble finding inform on these 2 rounds using Blue Dot powder. The info I have found doesn't have blue dot on their data. I was wondering if anybody could tell me if I can use blue dot for Winchester rounds and what a good load to start with is.
Thanks
