I'm using what seems to be a generic recipe in the Lee Reloading Manuel which gives a loading for 155gr lead cast bullets. The recipe is 4.6gr of bullseye. Bumble Bee doesn't have any kind of load data that I know of and they are a local company with no web site.

I've already loaded few rounds, I'll keep an eye out to make sure nothing gets jammed in the barrel though I'd be surprised if 3.5gr didn't at least push it out. I't might roll on the ground a few yards but I'd hope it would at least leave the barrel. I'm going to the range this weekend I'll see what happens when I pop of the first couple rounds.

The leading seems to occur in the last half inch of the barrel, I remember reading some where over 1000fps lead starts to melt from the friction. I was hoping to reduce it below that mark and see if it made a difference.
