Please, let's not get into "key board lawer" opinions. This "Handloads for SD" topic has been discussed, ad nauseam, at least since I started visiting reloading forums in 2006. Never a reliable example, never an actual case cited. Never a consensis...

Back to topic; I normally "carry" two SD loads in my 2" 38, One is a cast DEWC over a max load of W231. My other is a 124 gr. JHP.
