I am about to load 357mag for target shooting with my new Ruger Blackhawk 257/9mm. I am using 158g SWC. Hornady writes lead bullets makes good target rounds. Velocities should not exceed 1100fps, as undesirable leading of the barrel can occur..Unique provided the best performance with lead bullets... I am using 5g of Unique for a starting load..is this a good choice? Thanks.
