    I'm 53, and hadn't thought about this until recently. I am thankful to God that I have four grown sons, and four old out-of-production S&W revolvers that they grew up shooting. I know the sons and...

    I'd try 5.0 grains HP38 / W231, then use a little more if that is not satisfactory. BUT, that is only with large primers. HP38/W231 does not like small pistol primers, even if you increase the...

    I've done some 38 Special and 357 Magnum load comparisons with Unique and BE-86. Using about .3 to .5 grain more BE-86 yields similar velocity.

  10. 30-06 Reduced Loads with BE-86 instead of Unique or 2400?

    Based on lots of good advice from this forum, the kids and I have had lots of fun shooting reduced loads in our bolt-action 30-06 rifles using 2400 and Unique. Well, I'm down to 8 oz of 2400, but I...

    My family has been enjoying a Rem 700 for the past several years. Most of my kids have learned to shoot rifle with that---lots of grins and giggles. Now my youngest son loads 31141 over 20 grains...

    The 358311 has proven itself to me on several occasions, one in particular. One day I was shooting 358311s cast from an old 2-cavity mold, over 4.5 grains Red Dot, in 357 Magnum brass, out of my...

    In my experiments, it seemed to me that solid wadcutters loaded to the crimp groove do not require wadcutter brass for best accuracy, but hollow-base wadcutters need wadcutter brass for best accuracy.
  16. Wow!

    Wow!

    3.6 grains Red Dot with 150-ish grain bullet has been excellent for me.

    I bought a used 3" barrel concealed hammer K6S a while back, before price craziness hit. I liked it very well, but it was just a bit too small for my big hands, which love K and L frame guns. I...

    I have ended up using snubs in .357 rather than .38 because I can load light .357 loads to make essentially 38 Special +P+

    COWW for bulk ammo for the kids to shoot.
    1:1 SOWW:COWW for self-defense ammo. Expansion between 1000-1100 fps is great, and bullet doesn't come apart.
    That particular MP mold design is fantastic....

    5.0 grains Red Dot in 357 Magnum brass under boolits of 140-160 grains has worked great for me, after reading it in a Skelton article, if I recall correctly.
