I see some 380 acp Berrys at Cabelas on sale for 36.54 and mil disc is 34.71 for 500 plated at 100 grains. I have plenty of w231 so think I will get a box. There isn't a whole lot of powder used in those rounds. The different manuals vary on start and max but settled on start of 2.6 and a max of 3.1 to 3.5 uisng oal of 0.980. My Bersa like the 2.7 gr so got off cheap. I have a p238 and a hi-point 380 I need to find their preferred load. Was curious what powder any one else favors for their 380 round and if they have compared it to w231.

I'm on some back pain meds. I hoped over a chain link fence then back when I was done doing the yard work and the next day I was locked up. Been going on now for about 5-6 days. I couldn't go to the range the last couple of days because of the meds vs gun thing. Can't/won't do any reloading for same reason. I'm just making like a cat and being lazy and generally worthless. Especially since I don't eat mice!!!

The powder/bullet data was from my Berry's and I want to use xtremes if any of this makes since.

Sorry, my bad.

I've always used Unique and W231 for my pistol loads as I don't shoot anything larger than .357 Mag and those powders cover everything I own. But then I started shooting shotguns again so I'm using the Unique for my 16 gauges and only the W231 for pistol. I do have some TiteGroup I purchased when powder was tuff to find as a backup but I've never cracked the seal.

Or is that seel???? Maybe Alpo can help me with that. :p
