A few years ago, a friend of mine gave me a bunch of Herco powder.  I haven't used it for anything yet as it's not a powder I've developed loads for, but with the scarcity of powders in my area, I'm wanting to use some of it up.

I've found some load data in the Lee book, but was wondering if anyone has had any experience with it.

I'm going to be loading some 110gr JHP's (I got a screaming deal on these a few years ago as well)

You should be able to sub Unique data since Herco is slower than Unique.

.38 special is a forgiving cartridge.    I'm sure you'll find something that works well with what you have.

Just checked an old copy of Speer's #8 manual

6.5gr-8.5gr max for Herco and 110gr JHPs
