I've been to lyman's reloading manual, Hodgdon powder company data base and others, but can find no information for:
1 I want to load some 45lc 170 grain Royal lrnfp using Trail Boss powder I can find 160 and 180 bullets and the info for each but nothing for 170. ( if the aol for 160 is 1.500 and the low end powder is 6.0 grs/ and the aol for 180 is 1.540 and the low end powder charge is 6.0) this is what is listed at Hodgdon for each of these. Can I then plan to hold the aol at 1.520 and the low end charge of Trail Boss at 6.5. (45 loads are for both my rifle and pistols)
2. I also want to load 38 special for my wife's guns royal bullets again using 105 gr tc I know the Trail Boss charge should be 3.0 grns, but again I have no information for the aol. (38 loads are for pistol only)
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
