Winchester Super Field Powder

Schutzenbob · 04-06-2019, 07:06 PM

I've had very good results with my 7.65 load of 5.2 grains of Winchester Super Field "WSF" ball powder with the Rainier 100 grain .312 bullet. My pistol seems to like an over all length of 1.150" and never seems to skip a beat, WSF is also very clean burning. Now it's just a matter of improving my shooting skills!

Shutzenbob,

Interesting WSF on the burn speed chart #25 is exactly between the two powders I am testing #23 7625 (4.5gr) and #28 Herco (5gr) , so far the Herco results have been better.

The Luger trigger takes a bit to get used to, but I (new to Luger) am finding the trigger much easier with a little practice - still very different feel than my other guns
