    38 S&W load

    I want to load up some 38 S&W using 158 grain, .359 dia slugs. I will be pushing them with HP-38. I have seen the load data online and what is in my books, but was wondering if there was anyone out there with a load that they liked better than others and would be safe for use in a break top Webley.

    I would get a chronograph or have some one that has one check your loads. I load with REX 2 but you can't get that anymore. For old guns I try to be at 550 to 650 FPS for revolvers. Semi auto's are a bit different on loading.
