Anyone have the Speer Reloading Manual?

What is the max load of Alliant 2400 and the 135gr GDHP for 357 Magnum? Alliant just lists 16 grains on their website, but I think that is in the middle of the range. I knew I should have gotten a picture of the page in H&H...doh.

Couldn't resist.

I couldn't find 135gr. It lists 125gr with a min of 16.2 and a max of 19.0

and then there is 140gr with a min of 15.5 and a max of 17.4

The newest edition has the 135s in it. I looked it up at H&H when I bought the bullets.

Thanks Bud....

Mind posting a picture of the pages with that data. 19gr seems a little high for the 125s with 2400.

I have one, Min load is 15g, 1219FPS, Max load is 16g, 1377FPS, these loads are out of a S&W Model 19 w/a 6" barrel. It has FPS listed for a 2.5" barrel if you need them also.

Thanks jcbarlow. I remember the max velocity being 1377. I'll make these bad boys up and see how they do.

I'd be curious about the 2.5". I have one of those.

No problem those loads look awesome, the gun looks great also.

As soon as I get off work today I'll be glad to post them.
