Before I start loading .40S&W 140 Grain TCFP

[Chili Palmer]

When I starting loading .45ACP with Missouri Bullets .452 230gr 'Softball' projectiles I had no idea about the deep .452 v .451 discussions. My (very experienced re-loader) guy at work said 'you must use .451 for lead ball in .45ACP. Got a few different opinions here, turns out my Kimber Pro Carry II does prefer .451 over .452.

Just got 2000 140 Grain TCFP from Missouri. They are .401. Is there any different (re)sizing opinions for .40S&W? Shooting a Sig P226.

Plan on using Hodgdon Long Shot

Thanks

measured with a ten-thou mike?

Those should be perfect. Use a medium-rate powder like HS6 or Universal or AA5 or Silhouette or Power Pistol or similar.

^^^^Good advice! AA#5, Titegroup, Longshot all work well for me.

A fine choice.
Don't push it.
