Starline Brass , Winchester Standard LR Primers ,Hornady 410 gr Jacketed Sub-X ,13 grains Red Dot Powder, a little square of dacron about lil fingernail size lightly tamped down to push the powder against the primer with the blunt end of pencil/ school felt pen ( mayb needed / maybe not.....but it works ) , Crimped, COL about 2'540 but mainly curled into crimp groove . can also substitute 12.5 grains Hodgdon TiteGroup . 1,050 fps in my Begara. Use about 1.5 grains less with Delta Mikes Black 405 gr Hard Cast to re sight in cheaply then check with 1-2 Jacketed Hornadys. The hard cast lead seems alittle slipperier down the barrel .
