I finally got enough stuff together to attempt my first reloads. Some of the components I used were a little different than what I was originally going to use, but went with what I could find locally to get started.
I used Hornady 230g jacketed RN, Winchester LP primers, 4.4 gr Bullseye powder and a 1.265 oal, with a very slight taper crimp.
I was shooting a sub 5 inch group through my Glock 21, and slightly larger through my Colt series 70 gov model, at 20 yards off hand(no rest). I could easily see sub 2" groups off of a bench rest with this load.
I felt very happy with my first reloads. This was a pretty decent semi-mild target shooting load. They cycled flawlessly through my Glock and Colt.
Many thanks to those of you who have answered some of my questions in the past, while I was getting started.
