    Default Need Cast Loads for .40 S&W

    I have ordered a conversion kit for my Tanfoglio in .40 S&W. Looking to shoot 170-180 gr Lead bullets. Not interested in blowing the lid off but will want to make IPSC Major at 165. Unique and Win231 would be two powders I'll be using but feel free to chirp in with your favourite recipes.

    Take Care

    Thumbs up

    When I was in the USPSA games, I also used a Tanfoglio .40 Limited.
    My favorite load was 7.1 gr of WSF, 180 gr lead bullet, WSP primer.
    This slower powder provided a very manageable recoil.

    Happy Doubletapping,
    Al
