Im the new owner of a B92 in 357 caliber and I reload for this too. Is there any pet loads I should try? Tell me what I might expect with it.

My '92 is a SS Hartford made by Rossi but does not have that funky manual safety on top. Anyway, it shoots best with hornady 140 gr
HP/XTP std sm pistol primers and Hodgdon H110 18.0gr. Bout 20yrs.
ago I first worked up this load for my first Rossi Carbine and it shot
one hole groups with this load. I was a d*** a** and let it go on a
trade deal. The one I have now will shoot around 1 1/2" at 50yds.
with same load. I am trying other loads but this is the best overall
I have found so far. Good shooting.

One of my favorites is a 125 gr Hornady XTP with 16.1gr of VhitaVhouri N-110. I use the Winchester SP magnum primers. This load flat out puts it down the range! It is also a very accurate load. It's my personal favorite. Just so ya know what to expect: This is a high pressure round, it's at the very top of the pressure range with the VV N-110 (a GREAT powder, by the way). I have never split the brass, or flattened or separated primers, but I don't know that I would want to go any higher with it.


Good Luck !
