There are better powders for 38 and 44 special, which I use Unique and Universal the most, with the exception of Trailboss for 240gr lead loads that my wife loves to shoot. If I was closer, Id double your money on that pound. My youngest son shoots a 357mag HandiRifle, and we are starting to go through powder, primers, and projectiles in preparation for his first deer season this fall.
More good feedback, thanks.
I have lots of AA # 2 that I like for my 38 & 44 specials. Pretty good for 9mm too.
I have 3 pounds of W286 too, so I'll probably load a few 44 mag with each and see if my results match yours.
