The data shown here is slightly modified load data from Hodgdon's Load Data Center.
It has been modified to reflect the possible bullet sizing diameters, and differing O.A.L.s specific to Eggleston Munitions bullets.
If load data for your powder or bullet is not displayed here, search for data that uses Cast Lead (CL) or Plated bullets

A method for measuring the maximum overall length of cartridge for your barrel.
1. Remove your barrel.
2. Measure the length of the bullet
3. Drop the bullet in the chamber and using a vernier caliper measure from the base of the bullet to where the case would sit flush in the chamber.
4. Add the measurements from 2 & 3.
This will give you the maximum length of cartridge for that gun. You have to back off a few thousandths from that length to give some leeway for press variations and variations in bullet length. Assemble a dummy cartridge and make sure the cartridge will load in your magazines. Load the dummy round in your magazine and test for function by cycling the round through the gun.
