I'm looking for some light load modern ammo - that would duplicate or even lessen the pressure of the original 38 spl loads from that B. P. Era. The dealer I got it from seemed to think it would fire modern 38 spl ammo - BUT I DISAGREE & It's mine & My Call. Any Suggestions ?

If anyone has a couple of boxes to trade - I have a NOS box of
.45 acp "collectable" BLACK TALONS I don't need.....
Thanks for Looking, C.
How did you determine your revolver was made in 1903?
