RE: hornady sst bullets
I have been using Benchmark to reload the 139gr SST for my Encore pistol, but haven't been getting the grouping results I would like at 100 yards. I worked up to the max load of the Hogdon website for pistols and had to stop shooting because the scope was sliding. I just added two more rings and plan to try again to see if the scope will stay in place.
Vargetand IMR 4895 seem to be popular choices on other forums, I may need to give those a try.

A buddy of mine shot them at a deer and it blew up on the front shoulder (no penetration at all), then he had to put another in its neck and it blew up on impact too. No penetration at all, he switched to Inter-Bonds.
