You're welcome Glenn.........

BTW IMR 4227 will give you the same performance with the 180 grain jacketed 38-40 as the 2400......per my late 1950's and 1960's loading manuals 20.0 grains of IMR 4227 will give you 1428 FPS and 18.0 grains of 2400 will give you 1420 FPS. Both are recommended loads and not max loadings for the 38-40 180 grain bullet. IMR 4227 is readily available at most suppliers. I use IMR 4227 in several loadings such as the 32-20 with great results.

Best Regards,


Doug
