Wanted: .38 Caliber Spl loads
« on: April 14, 2003, 11:12:43 AM »
I am currently loading Horandy XTP125 and 158 Flat point for my .38.  I have several manuels, but none for horandy.  I have Unique and W296.  Does any one have any info for the loads for each of these powders, and bullets?

Thank You,

I just loaded a bunch of 158 grain lead swc, using 4.3 g. of Unique.  These were Hornady bullets.  My Speer book lists 158 grain bullets identical to these with a charge of 4.0 - 4.7 grains of Unique.  Since my .357 is in the shop, I will not be able to tell you how they shoot.
Praise the Lord, and pass the ammunition!
