I was watching a video last night on youtube of a gentleman cloning buffalo bores 180 grain Hardcast load for 357 magnum.
Some interesting things I noticed in the video is that he thought the powder they were using was 15.8 grains of lil gun. and the 180 grain bullet had a gas check.
I never did understand the concept of trying to guess powders by how they look , I know some are drastically different than others. But I thought it was interesting.
In the video it looked like H110 to me but im not a visual powder expert
Also At what point would you use a gas check in a revolver. Is there a certain threshold?
Here is the video
