[QUOTE="lloydsmale, post: 1007208, member: 41442"] Id stay away from lilgun. I know its probably the most recomended powder but not in my gun. I did some testing when i heard that lilgun prematurely erroaded pistol throats because of the heat generated by it. I took my beo and shot 10 shots with lilgun rapid fire and could have probably lit a cigerette off the barrel. It was so hot it was smoking. I then did the same with 297 and i could hold the barrel in my hand for a couple of seconds. Im sure long term use of lilgun will erroade the first part of your barrel. My go to load is 36 grains of 297 and the renieer hp or solid. If i couldnt find 297 id look at 1680 next. its a bit slower so you could start with the same 36 grain charge and work up. If i couldnt find that id look at 110 or 297 [/QUOTE]
