Thanks, Sevens
I have a lot of W231 because it's so versatile for me and what I shoot,
or what I used to shoot lots of.
Now it's basically .38 and .32 calibers and since things went so crazy I haven't
seen much need to chase all over looking to replace some of the other powders I formerly used.
I have had wonderful results in the .32 H&R with 231 and am currently achieving satisfactory results in the .327 with some medium loads.
I only have six different projectiles to work with and mainly SPP and SPM but
around 4.6gr of 231 seems to be working really well. Berrys plated HBWC, turned either way, and seated to COL of 1.333" [not flush] is working very well in the 2" and 3" snubs, 4" GP and the 5.5" BH.
I don't have much chance to chrono now, they annexed me to the city limits which rendered my range inoperable at home, and the indoor I shoot at has little short shelves and I don't think anyone would appreciate me shooting from 10 feet behind the booth.......
