    With this thread it got me to thinking..How many of you out there on INGO handload/reload the .357 Sig?

    Tried it out a few years ago with mostly success. There is quite a few additional things to do/watch for with this caliber due to it's unique design..Most of you reloaders know that the average 9MM projectile will not work well with this caliber.

    What say you INGO??..Bill.

    I've got dies (Lee carbide .40 resizer, Lee Steel .357 sig, and Lee factory crimp), berry's 124gr HBFP and some once-fired brass all sitting on the bench. I haven't started yet but I hope to soon.

    I size my brass much the same as I do rifle brass, I bump the shoulder approx. .003". I use a bullet that was intended for the Sig, usually the 125gr.XTP and I use 800X because with a max load it is compressed and keeps you from having bullet setback problems, then I roll crimp.
