Checking out some hand loads with the 741 and a sierra 210 grain bullet. I was also seeing if there was any difference between a Winchester primer and a Federal 155 Large Pistol Mag primer. I am planning on revolver hunting and will be using one of these loads with a 210 grain Swift A-Frame bullet. I am working up loads with a Sierra bullet and then I load a few with the swift a-frame to check for accuracy. The swift a-Frame is $1 a bullet and just too expensive of a bullet to work up loads.

humane, while his education has been sadly neglected.”

“When some of my friends have asked me anxiously about their boys, whether
they should let them hunt, I have answered, yes – remembering that it was
one of the best parts of my education – *make* them hunters.”

You certainly have done a nice scientific job with those loads. I like Winchester primers, they seem a little softer and give better DA reliability. You loads look very close to what I like. I've been thinking about going 22 gn H110 next time I load and your data seems to suggest it to be a good idea.
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.

If a man designed it, and a man built it, then a man can fix it.
