So I'm going to take JYD's advice and drop my powder down to 25gr from 30gr for my Pietta .44 but..
There's a good chance that I'll be getting a .36 cal in a steel frame later on this year.So since I have to order my stuff online (no local shops) I might as well order both screw on powder measures at the same time.
So what should I get for a .36 a 15gr or 20gr?
I've watched videos where they only used 15 gr but that kinda looked like a wimpy load..

20 is a target load for 36 At 15 you might need filler.

computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

20's good, get the 15 anyway in case you get a .31 some day.
Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.
