    WSL in .38 Special

    Can anyone fill me in on Winchester Super Light powder? I've seen burning rate charts claiming it is slower than Unique and others claiming it is nearly as fast as Bullseye. I've also heard that it was renamed Titegroup.

    The information I've found has been so conflicting that I would be grateful to hear from someone who actually knows something about if. My intent is to use it in .38 Special with 150 grain SWCs.
    Sometimes you gotta wonder if democracy is such a good idea.

    Hi.
    I´m Luis from Spain.
    I use WSL in 38 sp wc 148 grains RCBS mold bullet and the last week I reload (target anmunitión) with 2.0 and 2.2 grains of WSL without any crimp and bullet all into the shell.
    2.0: around 200 m/s
    2.2: around 220 m/s
    Both are a good reload to target cartridge.
    You can use bullseye reload table with -10% to low charge.
    In the future I´ll to charge with 2.1 grains.
    Bye.

    This page shows it is close to Unique and it shows Titegroup faster
