I'm reloading for my Colt Detective Special. I want to avoid overtaxing a 70 year old revolver, so I know that the commercial +P rounds are out.
I am loading on the low side 5.7 grns of HS-6 with a 158 Gr semi-wadcutter. This puts the pressure around 13,700. The high side of this range is 16,200 with 6.3 grns.
What pressure in a .38 spcl begins to reach the +P range?
