    Thank you all!

    I've picked the gun up and am currently giving it a rub while I wait for the powder etc to arrive.
    I bought 100 factory magnums which are totally unnecessary for me, but I will use one box for the cases, and the other for friends to use. The online vectan data shows Ba9 from 4.9 all the way to 11.5grns, so I will start low and work my way up. I've bought a 2kg tub so would rather not buy any more just yet.

    My only problem now is these factory loads are a bit much for my home range, I'll have to wait til I get to the one in town before I can get some empties

    The lead bullet will probably give lower pressure and maybe higher velocity than jacketed. You may need to up the minimum load in a magnum case to make them consistent.

    I made boolits! I've only loaded a few with 4.9grn to use in my indoor home range, but omg! What a lovely gun!?

    The recoil is there, but pushy not snappy, a real joy to shoot.

    Thursday I can stretch it's legs and see what's what, but when I went back to the .357 it was kind of "Aw, aren't they sweet" kinda like .177
