[QUOTE="TheLastDaze, post: 2565817, member: 10463"] I had initially filled the hopper to maybe 3/4 and would let it get 1/3 empty and add more.. I think I did this twice, right now though I topped it off and emptied the can so the hopper is completely full and I'm just waiting more brass.... Going out to the range tomorrow hopefully and shoot some of these off, sucks now that I'm reloading I don't live in the country anymore where I could have loaded a mag and went and tried it out before continuing to load 600+... I am using Berrys RN 115 gr.. I'm waiting for some 147 gr and other stuff from powder valley to come it and that should knock my powder down to 3.7 I believe.. Jerry's also said some guys use rifle powder for pistol and have for years and love it... I will google hp38 and aa#5.... does AA stand for accurate arms? I'm hoping valley gets some more powder in and if I have the money will stock up a little... looks like they have great pricing and would make it worthwhile even with hazmat fees EDIT: aa#5 with 115 RN would start at 6.5gr-7 ... ouch... me can't afford that stuff :) accurate nitro on the other hand starts its load for 115 gr Rn at 3.3- 3.6... these are the numbers I'm looking for...but don't want to be an idiot and merely buy a powder because of its low gr to bullet weight if its not going to be pleasant to shoot [/QUOTE]
