.380 reload data needed
I have purchased 500 102 grain, .380 Remington Golden Saber bullets and cannot find any reloading data for them. Can anyone help?
Thanks, Bill Last edited by WRC; 09-09-2009 at 12:57 PM.. |

Re: .380 reload data needed
Hornady #7 manual has a load for 100 grain bullets using 10 different powders. You might want to look into that.

Re: .380 reload data needed
Yup, I use the Hornady 100gr data for the 102gr Golden Sabers too...although I usually stick with the Hornady 90gr XTP in my .380 Mak.
WW231 is my powder of choice for the .380. I had it on hand for other calibers and it has been working great in the .380 too. |

Re: .380 reload data needed
I use 3.6 gr's. of W231 for 100 gr. bullets in my 380's and am quite pleased with the way they perform. That load will get you enough velocity to get some expansion out of your golden sabre's.
