    "...17 gn..." 7.0 is max for a jacketed 140. Hodgdon's site has lots of 140 grain jacketed data. The handgun and rifle 140 grain Tite-group data are the same. Except for velocities. 6.3 to 7.0.
    You do not need bullet maker specific data.
    Spelling and grammar count!

    Sierra recommends 13 different powders for the 140... none of them are Tite Group... The only listing I could find in my Loadbook was in the Hodgdon data quoted by Sunray...

    Give the Tech Support guys at Sierra a call... They are always helpful.
