I need some tried and true loads for the 30 Herrett, I have just purchased one although I shot one in the 70's. I have lost all on my loading data for that caliber and am wondering if any one can help me.
Thanks
Pete

X-pilot, I have some data in a reloading book for TC contender pistols. What powder and bullets do you intend to use? RD

Thanks Rick, Nice ride I had a FX shovel head earlier on in life. That load will give me something to start on, do they say anything about 3031 or 4350?
Thanks again,
Pete

speer #10 shows 25 gr imr 3031 for 1808 fps in a 14 inch barrell. i suggest sticking to a faster powder in the 10 inch.
