Question 40S&W powder
Anyone out there have opinions on powder selection for 40S&W reloads? My Winchester Action Pistol (WAP) supply just ran out and I will be switching to something else since they don't make it anymore. Can't say that it was superior to others anyway. Hodgdon recommended that I try Universal and, in an old magazine article, Ken Waters said that Herco was one of his two favorite powders for 40S&W. I have both of these and will give them a try.

Any opinions welcome,

270man

I use Bullseye. Mostly because I buy it in very large containers for other rounds I load and it`s abt. the cheapest powder I can load.
