Go by the book of the bullet manufacturer on loads!!!! Start low and work up, look for signs of pressure !!!! All that reading is for your safety, Keep getting dizzy

All good advice. Start with 50-55 gr. I like VMAX and don't care about pelts. Start low. Load 10 rds at a time, and work up. Have also been told by others that H380 is a good one. Thanks again. KP
