Remington Golden Sabre 102gr bullets

Does anybody have a good load using these bullets and W231? They will be used in my Bersa .380.

Sorry only one I have is not to spec. I was going to post it but thought better of it. Try Hodgdon's web site.

I have used 3 grs of 231 with the 102 GS. Not bad. Max is 3.1. Hope this helps.

I've used 3.0 for Hornady's 100g FMJ .980 OAL (probably similar to GS). In my range notes I have that it was accurate but a bit snappy. I would probably do something between 2.7 and 3.0. This was in a Walther PPK/S which is similar in size/design to the Bersa.

I use 2.9gr HP-38 behind the Golden Sabers. HP-38 = W231.
