The exact same load as you see listed for Hodgdon TiteGroup.
Somewhere around 3.6-3.9gr for lead.

Winchester manual list the following for 170 LeaD.
START .2GR LOWER AND BE CAREFULL
4.3gr = 940fps
4.8gr = 1030fps.
All loaded to about 1.150", so if you load longer these should be fine with a 180gr Lead.

So many guns, so little time.

Go to Jeff M. page for WSL load info.. Wondering where you found WSL? Haven't seen any for a some time now... It was my most favorite Winchester powder.. I have 10 one lb. cans left.

A little late to be working up a load for the SCC, isn't it?

Trini, had a large supply. Tightloop, that was a friend of mine that wanted to know. I have had my load for awhile. Zero 165 JHP, 5.0 TG. Works great in my P16. Thanks for the info guys. TXAG
