I start my loads around 4 gr of titegroup and work up. I use Zero 180 gr bullets and Win primers. I found that my para was very sensitive to crimp diameter around .418 to .420. Also had to lead reamed to allow long loaded ammo. I was loading to about 1.160 to 1.180 oal. Depends alot on what the gun likes.

Accurate #2 is also good, muzzle flash is very small. Really great if you shoot indoors or low light.

I used Laser cast for a while, but the cost was higher than jacketed bullets.
