I really like WSF in 9x19 and it seems like it would be a good mid-range powder in .357, but there is no published load data that I can find. I can find a bit of data for .38spl +P.

Has anyone got any published data or used WSF in.357?

Thanks
 
Ok, let's have a conversation...all the information below is just that, information. Always inform yourself before doing something stupid.

If you want to experiment I can tell you that WSF loads similarly to Herco (and to some extent Unique). That should translate to 6.5gr for a mid(ish) range load and 7.5gr for something a little more caliente under a 158gr cast bullet. Work your way up from there if you still have hands, lol.

P.S. I hope this doesn't shy you away from giving it a go. One of my favourite 9mm loads (3.7gr of WST under a 147gr CamPro) was an experiment very similar to the one mentioned above (no published data, very little on the net and countless warnings of my impending demise).

Thanks,

I saw another reference to 6.5 gr / 158gr bullet on an American forum. I should also email Hogdon and ask...
