I think i have found it, I went to my mountain , near the Oregon Coast this morning. I brought My GP-100 , Davidson's exclusive 5 inch. I shot it a couple weeks ago with Montana Bullet works, 160 grain FN GC sized at .357. I was very happy with load. It was H 110 just under max. I saved 5 bullets , Today i went back with a box full of The same makers 158 gr SWC GC. sized to .358 ,under 2400. And I loaded the other 5 of the 160 gr FN GC with the same powder charge and primer. I rested the gun on my Back pack across the hood of my jeep. I put 4 of the .357 sized bullets into 1 hole, and the fifth opened the group to .90 At about 50 feet, (17 of my penguin paces) The .358 swc Was 2 inches , at the same distance. And i tried it 3 times and all were about the same. I am about to order 200 More of the one that works. I shoot that gun pretty darn well if i say so my self. I think a man sized target at 50 yards would have holes in it for sure ! That is my next test ! ...tj3006

I've had the same gun for several years and it's a shooter. I tend to trade that gun back and forth with a buddy of mine and he has it right now, I think we've each had it three times now. Sounds like you've got a good load going there.

TJ,
I have really liked the small number of Montana Bullet Works bullets I have gotten from them in .32's. Their variable sizing is nice.
But I have no idea how to afford $.27 each. I pay $.08 or thereabouts. I'm too frugal, read "too cheap", to play all day with those beauties.
