Reading books, watching video's talking to friends. I bought W231 with primers for my 38 special. I now need bullets, I was looking to get Hornday's, but they're out of stock. I see midway has Speer 158gr LRN's in stock, but the serial number is 4648. The book I bought "The Complete Reloading Manual for the .38 Special" has Speer LRN's as serial number 4647, both have the same Ballistic Coefficient and Sectional Density. It looks like a safe load is 4.5gr. But I'm leery since the serial numbers are different. I have to admit, making sure I have the right powder weight has me cautious. Does anyone know if there is a difference?
