I know this is a precision rifle forum, but I know a lot of you reload for handgun too and I don't feel like registering for a new forum just to ask this question.
Do any of you out there reload for .357?
I have a Taurus 66 in .357. It's got an excellent single action trigger. I would like to start doing some target shooting with it.
With the .357 cylinder would it be better to load with .357 cases or does it matter if I use .38SPL?
Does anyone have a good bullet weight and charge for target shooting at 50 yards? It doesn't have to make any certain power factor for what I am doing with it. If I shoot IDPA with it I will just throw together some hotter loads.
Currently I don't have any powder or bullets and the only brass I have is from previous firings and is barely enough to do a workup. I really haven't shot this handgun much other than to sight it in and confirm function. It's been a "nightstand" gun for a couple years, but I know it's capable of so much more.
Thanks
