Nice shooting! She's a keeper. Hopefully it'll shoot as well or better with handloads. I'm looking forward to trying some other powders in mine.

And more choices for the consumer is a win in my book.

Nostalgia and price point?

That did very well for a cup and core bullet at that velocity. How's accuracy with that load?

Hard to beat Titegroup and Win 231/HP-38. Those are my go-to's for plinking loads in just about any pistol round.

I've used H1000 and LRT in the 7mm PRC and 168gr ABLR. I got much better velocity with LRT, currently doing 2900 fps out of a 20" barrel. Works awesome on deer. You can check the 7mm bullet test forum where I recovered one from a buck.

I say go for it and have fun. Definitely wouldn't want to use it for any high volume shooting though. That'd be a good way to burn out a barrel & blow through reloading supplies.

I used to carry some 38 Spl +P Buffalo Bore 158gr LSWCHP's in my S&W 442. Good gravy they recoiled! They penetrated very well though and would be a good woods carry load.

Damn, looking good!

Titegroup is an excellent powder and not case sensitive. I have used a lot of it over the years in 9, 38, 40, 44 Special & mag & 45 ACP. If you're worried about recoil because of your hand issues, you could further drop bullet weight to 185 or lighter if you could find it, reducing recoil even...

I got my first 6.5x55 last year in a wood stocked Tikka T3x Stainless. Beautiful rifle and shoots lights out. Was lucky enough to shoot two bucks including my personal best with it last year too. I'm still working on loads with it, but Staball 6.5 with 140gr Partitions have been amazing. Your...

If you're looking for that kind of velocity, I'd be inclined to stick with the more stoutly constructed regular Accubonds. I'm sure the ABLR would do just fine as well, but I have never ran them more than 3000 fps or so. I've been very fortunate in getting the ABLR's to shoot without issue. They...

Nice to know, but not sure why this thread was posted in the bullet test area?

Thanks for all the info everyone. It's very hard to see, but the price tag on that can is $30 something for 4 lbs. Wish I could find one pounders for that price!

I was just gifted this almost full 4 lb canister of Red Dot but I have never used Red Dot before. What loads have y'all used this for? It's obviously on the old side, but is in excellent condition. I ask this because I do not load for shot shells. Any help would be appreciated.

It shoots great, right around an inch or a little less if I do my part with very little load development. It wasn't a max load, so I could get more velocity but it's working so well I might leave it alone.

I have not loaded 565 yet but plan to soon in the PRC's.

Very cool, I never knew they made those.

Dang, I havent eaten near as many different animals as most of y'all. For me, any kind of deer I love but mostly eat whitetail. Also wood duck is amazing.

IMR4350 is more expensive around here but I prefer H4350. IMR powders in general are running $20-$30 more per pound compared to H.
