Reloading Data for 38 Long Colt
« on: March 28, 2003, 09:47:55 AM »
I want to start reloading the 38 Long Colt for use in my Uberti 1851 and 1861 Colt reproductions. I will be using a hollow base lead bullet with smokeless powder. None of my reloading manuals have information on this cartridge. Does anyone have any reloading information I can use? Thank You.

Use light .38 Special loads with 150 grain lead bullets.
