With the WST try 2.5 to 2.8 grains and see what happens. If your shooting Bevel base wadcutters you probably need to increase to 3.0 to 3.5 grains of Bulleye to get the best accuracy. We expect a full report soon.

1959 Model 14 S&W 3T- 148 HBWC hornady. I settled on the 2.7 BE after running 10 rounds of all the choices through the gun. The 2.7 seemed to answer all my questions. So I loaded 700 rounds and have been shooting that . Next run I may run some 2.6 and 2.8 just to see whats what and if I had my scale set right the first time around
