I’ve been shooting the .357max for around seven years now. During that time I’ve tried out hundreds of different loads and tested them in both my Encore barrels and my Win Low Wall. To date, my most accurate loads have been the 180 grain Speer HotCore bullet on top of VihtaVouri N110 and N120, both at maximum right off the VihtaVouri on-line loading data. Last weekend I shot three consecutive five shot groups at 107 measured yards (my deck to my backstop) that ranged from .8 to .88” c-c. I have several loads that will easily do under 1,5” with different powders and I’ve found some powders simply create radical vertical stringing with any charge weight. I managed to get three deer with this load last hunting season with two of them being a lasered 189 yards. I’m in the process now of trying this powder with some Hornady 200g bullets to see if I can get some decent results. We’ll see what happens.
