What are your favorite HOT .357 Magnum loads?

Like 18gr of Lil Gun behind a 158gr JHP.

21.5gr of H-110 under a 125grJSP. My 4" Ruger GP100 clocks 1545fps over my chrono. 202 Power Factor

Load Data says 22gr is max load But I have Pretty Flat Primers and I'm Happy.

QUICKload says 49.5K lbs of Pressure......I'm Happy there...

I never heard em called barn burners before. You learn something new here every day.

10mm: 17.5gr #9 with a 135gr Nosler. Clocked 1509fps from my 4 inch Kimber.

32 H&R: 6gr WSF (WSPM primer) with a 100gr LSWC. Not chronoed but recoil is borderline pucker factor.

A 36 grain Sierra jacket over 11 grains of 231 will do 2500 FPS in a 4" GP-100.

Golf ball over 1/3 lb black powder in an 8" long x 3" wide mini canon barrel. :sifone:

A Mack truck. Why burn the barn when you can plow through it?

In college, we had a acetylene/oxygen cannon that we would shoot when the football team scored. Also, since it was our cannon (not the university's) it got shot any time that we damn well pleased outside of the game. Without projectile, we would get a six foot flame. With cups filled with objects and mini footballs, we would get serious distance even with the light objects.

I like 16.6gr of 296 behind a 158gr XTP for my fire breathers. I get 1595fps out of my 8-3/8" 586.
