The shape of the bullet is not gonna matter even if you adjust the COL a bit. Not like the 38 special is a blistering high pressure round,
Thanks again, to you and everyone else. I’ll bump it up from the 3.6 I make now to the 3.8 for the Hornady XTP. That’s starting load for that bullet. Maybe go 3.9

I do love this forum. Guys here walked me through my first reloads summer of 2013, Rule3 especially.
