Have 22 GL hulls using the 57 primer anad molded base wad,

28 Green hulls with plastic base using teh 209 type primers,


& 40 WIN "current Cheddite" hulls,

Any good loads for then using the HS-6 powder, wads can be either the WAA16, R16 or Sp16

THanks.

When looking for loads try the old lyman books. There are many loads for HS-6 and the w-540 which is the same powder with a different name.

Best,
Ron
