    Use a midrange .40 S&W load with a jacketed bullet as max, then back off 10% and work up.

    I like Universal and No.7 in the .40S&W.

    I use the same method of data calculation as Kludge. I use plated bullets in 9mm, .40, .45 and 38/357. Even though I use a different powder, the referencing from below the middle for true jacketed bullets is a good method that works for me.

    Good Luck
