[QUOTE="Blitzfike, post: 2411409, member: 807"] Each weapon has its on needs as far as load development. You may get lucky and find a single load that works in all your guns, but not in my experience. I have had to work up loads for each of my rifles to get to that magic spot. Pistols are a little easier, but again, asking for a proven load for a different gun is asking a lot. For 223, I like Varget, AA2230, AA2015 and a variety of milsurp powders for my plinking. For 10mm, I use AA7, AA9, 2400 and titegroup. There are many other powders that will work as well, but those are the ones I have settled on. I load mostly either 165 or 180 grain bullets. I would recommend that you use a good loading manual and start low and work up seeing what cycles you action best and gives the best group. Some loads are most accurate at the lower end and some at the higher end. depends again on the weapon. Your Jennings is a questionable brand as far as strength of the materials in it. the Keltec is also one you don't want to use heavy loads in. Keltec is a good brand, but the way it is designed, (small light weight frame) it won't hold up to lots of heavy high pressure loads. I have a Tangfolio Witness in 10mm and like it quite a bit, but it is the larger heavier model.
