[QUOTE="O4L, post: 3560097, member: 24429"] Sorry guys I had to get ready to leave the house and cut my last post a little short. A few more details, if necessary... The powder is Sport Pistol. The bullets are Xtreme copper plated 115 gr round nose. I've been told these are supposed to be loaded like cast bullets as far as the powder charge goes. The brass is range pick up that was given to me. I'm guessing private home range. I have it sorted by headstamp. I have more than enough Xtreme brass to load the 500 rounds that I have components for so it is my plan to use all the same headstamp for these 500 reloads. Primers are Winchester WSP. I will be loading primarily range/plinking ammo for a G48 and a Shield. I may get a G17.5 at some point if I ever find the right deal on one. The info you all are giving about how many rounds to load for testing, and what to load for as far as performance, plus how much to go up each time, if at all, I guess are the main things I'm wondering about right now but all info offered is welcome. Thanks! Since this is for range use, basically punching holes in paper inside 50 yards, I'm thinking as long as it functions well at or near the recommended "start here" powder charge, like stated above, that is good to go and for this initial start up I don't need to look for anything more.???
