I've been successful hunting hogs with 44 Magnum, Hornady 240 XTP's with 24gr. H-110 out of my 7.5" SRH, but want to try lead and I had a couple XTP jacket separations last time out.

I just ordered a bunch of Missouri Bullet Company 240gr. "Keith" bullets and I'm looking to stick with H-110 for a "hot" but accurate hog killer.

My manuals (Lyman and Hornady) don't show a lot with H-110, and most data is for 250gr. Keith's. Leading scares me (I shoot a LOT), but the bullets are supposed to be 18 Brinell Hardness.

Any recommendations with the H-110 and 240gr. Keith?

Missouri Bullet Company number is 430240EK and a link to them is here: http://www.missouribullet.com/details.php?prodId=103&category=5&secondary=12&keywords=

I have a couple pounds of 2400 - should I just stick to that?
