Pressed out the first .38's in Clays for Pop 2 weeks ago. We're getting together tomorrow, and I just pressed out my Trail Boss .45 colts, and had the urge to see how it would compare to the .38s we've already prepped.
Dies swapped out, checked the site above, and figured 3.5 grains was a good medium compromise to push both a 158 grain LRN and a 125gr plated HP. 10 rounds each. (lists 3.0 min, 5.3 max for 125g, 2.7/4.2 for 158)
Any glaring Errors on the charge from the Veteran loaders before I scar the Model 10 up? auto-disk was pretty dang consistent on the powder shots again.
Have a newer (80s, the model escapes me) SW snubby as well, I'll be feeding the larger loads through that more modern gun first.
Need to invest in a chronometer soon.
Thanks, Neighbors!
