What's your favorite 357 Sig load? I've been loading Unique and Blue Dot topped with a 124gr.Nosler Hp...I'm also considering trying IMR800X.

And if they crowd you just roll the gun over a few degrees...
Nothing like a 10 foot fireball to get someone's attention, lol.
Noise and velocity are very similar between H110 & SR4756 but you run less powder with the SR4756 and the gun feels calmer.
I found that H110 shot flat but it felt like a lot of violence was detonating in my hands every time I touched one off and the SR4756 shot just as flat, made the same power factor, used less powder and it felt like shooting any other pistol- very calm-.
Also SR4756 seems easy to find...H110 not so much.

I have lots of H110.... but an alternate is always welcome!

Funny story, when I first tried open, there was a stage to shoot through a barrel... I stuck my head and shoulders in and touched one off. That..was..a..mistake.

Even double plugs can't fix stupid. OTOH, I do have some video of the SIG barking, and you can see a vertical jet out of the comp 12' high!!!!

Awesome stuff, even if she is a powder pig
 
I use Hodgdon 800x 8.0gr (8.6gr if I want more aggressive and waist powder), Federal small pistol primers, Campro 147gr bullet (made for 9mm). Can't tell the difference with factory ammo. Pretty sure I am over the power factor but haven't measured it.
