I have some 140gr Speer JHP, that I would like to load for my Derringer. I cant find any Load Data. I would think these bullets are for the 357, but would like to use them for my derringer. I have some Unique or Bullseye powder to use. Anybody have some info that could help me.

From Speer # 10, 140 gr JHP, Speer cases, CCI 500, shot in Security Six, 6 inch barrel. Bullseye, 4.4 grs for 854 fps Unique, 5.1 grs for 856 fps. Good luck |

I have to hold on tight to keep those guns pointed in the right direction after the first shot. |

Thanks for the info. I have a Speer #12 and several others which none have any info for the 140gr JHP, for the 38. For sure you don't want to use that +P data in Speer #12. Next time you buy bullets, get some lead 158 gr SWC's or RN. Lots of data for those. |
