Red, your getting to the fun part now. I find once I get the load developed that I like, I kinda lose interest.

I was reading Phillip Sharpe's book and he listed the 146RN as the main bullet for the 38 S&W. I scouted around and found a mold for this bullet and casted a bunch, and sized them to .360. Found a set of Lyman dies for this caliber and went to town. Loaded several boxes and gave them to my wife, along with the RP from S&W. She just gave it back cuz I gave her the I frame 32 S&W long I got in a swap.

I think I might like to try W231 in this one, but it may be a little hot. Gotta read up on it.

Guess I am gonna have to start shooting this one again. I do like carrying this 38 S&W and it fits so well under my shirt.

Good luck
