Years ago I bought about 50 boxes of commercial reloads in 148 gr LWC for my 52-2. I do not know what the load is, they are mixed headstamps, nickel and brass, but they all shoot flawlessly.
I stopped shooting for a few years but have started again, problem is I am running out of wadcutters. Now I am casting as well as reloading, I am having good luck with 158 Gr LSWC in my revolvers, but now I have to start loading 148 Gr wadcutters.
Has anyone slugged their barrel? Also, is anyone using Clays Powder?
I have been using Clays for .38 Spl and it's clean and consistent, the other plus is that I have it on the bench for 12 gauge.
Thanks
