  • .357 Magnum: Compatible with light to moderate bullet loads
  • Submachine gun ammunition: Delivers correct energy levels for reliable cycling with subsonic loads

Key Features

Consistent Metering: The spherical granule design flows smoothly through charge plates, ensuring uniform powder charges with minimal variation—critical for precision handloading.

Flash Suppressant: Includes a level of flash suppressant to reduce muzzle flash, an advantage for low-light shooting and extended range sessions.

High-Speed Loader Compatible: Works effectively with automated loading equipment, making it suitable for both single-stage and progressive reloaders.

Proven Alternative: Offers comparable performance to OBP 248, giving handloaders a reliable option for their preferred loads.

Important Loading Notes

As with all reloading components, even minor changes to bullet weight, primer type, or case can significantly affect ballistic performance. Always consult published load data from established reloading manuals before developing your own loads. Start at the minimum recommended charge weight and work upward carefully, watching for pressure signs.

One pound of propellant provides ample material for developing and testing loads in your preferred cartridges.
