I don't have a chart for longshot for my powder bushings...I'd like to try a load that uses 20 grains. Can anyone tell me how many grains of another powder (unique, herco, most any powder...mine just doesn't include longshot) the correct bushing uses? I'll weigh it out, just want to know where to start.
Thanks,
Dave |
