Put a bushnell elite 3200 on order this morning for my 15" encore pistol this morning after looking for 2 months. Had been paying off some bills from last years layoff, work is wide open right now. Now I need a load for the .480 Ruger 400 grain (LEE) lead cast bullet I have tight group and H110 powder on the bench will most likely use alox lube. I have a TC encore with a 15" barel Could use a mild to extra warm load Tell me what you use. I dont mind a warm load I do hate a load that leads the barel. Most interested in an accurate load. I hope to do a little hog hunting in the next year or so. (up to 150 yards) If you have a load for the lighter 325 grain (LEE) mould with gass check. I would appreciate that as well I dont have that yet but I'm looking at it. Once again Thank you for the help!!! William.

Fan,

I've had great accuracy and velocities with essentially no leading using the Lee 400 CWFN ( Brinell hardness 19, water quenched wheel weights ); Lee Alox tumble lube; Horn brass; Accurate #9, 20.7 grains OR H110, 20.9 grains ( RCBS Little Dandy powder measure rotor #22 ); Winchester magnum large pistol primer. These are not max loads, but near the upper end. Work up with caution. I've fired these loads in 2 1/2" to 18" barrels with no problems, including my 12" Encore barrel. Hope this helps!
