Interesting question on a Military Weapon forum. I would go to any of the powder mfrs. websites (Alliant, Hodgon, Vhitivouri, Norma) and see what they recommend. I think it is a very interesting caliber. Known as the 40 short and wimpy, it has the ballistics of the old 38-40. I would not want to be on the receiving end of one of these though. As they say stay, out of a pistol fight unless your gun has a "4" as the front number.

Now days it is a 5 Wineman having owned 357M and 44M of which developed a healthy ME when I fired a 500 S&W with factories it was quite a lively piece as was the 50 Desert Eagle they just get bigger now days like the 45/70 I watched Jerry Mikulek fire what a HG that was.......
