Hi there, I have a #20 Glock in 10mm and want to load some cast bullets to shoot in it. I ordered a Storm Lake barrel, a Lyman mold for a 150 grain bullet, the resizing die for my #45 Lube/Sizer but I can't come up with a specific load for that bullet in 10MM, anyone out there care to help me out here??
You can use a slightly heavier bullet (lead) as a good start for your data and work from there
All my data and manuals are literally on the other side of the world right now...but I generally just use jacketed data, reduce 10% and work up.
This might help some

I want to thank you all for your advise, and especially "The Shadow" for the loads, where did you get those from? :D ;D
Lyman cast bullet handbook would be my guess. I have the last two editions, and it is good data.
Yes this is Lyman's cast data for 10mm, I cast the 175 grain TC BB #401368 and also have the Lyman Devastator 156 grain single cavity HP mold that is the same design as the 175 gr but with a hollow pointer pin.

Amazon has it as well, $21.99 and free shipping if you are a prime member.

I've been using 10.0 of bluedot over my home cast and powdercoated 180's with good results.
SHADOW-what is the BH of that devastator lyman and diametr?
do you use that bullet, out of what gun, barrel length,accuracy to what
Diameter is 0.4015" using Carnauba Red Lube. Mine run between 12 & 14 straight wheel weight. I can make them softer at about 8-10 if I add more straight lead. I may try them dead soft with shake & bake Powdered Paint coated some day
