Default By request ... FBI 38spl load request

A couple folks emailed me asking for the data from Ramshot that duplicates the "FBI load" using Starline +P brass and the Speer LSWCHP bullet.

Its VERY accurate and a simple loading. MidwayUSA had a big sale on these bullets not that long ago. I guess more than a couple board members took advantage of the deal.

Here you go! (thanks to [email protected])

Caliber: .38 Special +P
Pressure spec: < 18,500 psi.
Barrel length: 4.0”
Powder: Ramshot- SILHOUETTE®.
Bullet weight: 158 grain LSWC HP. COL : 1.455”

Start load: 5.5 grains (ca 896 fps)
Maximum load: 6.1 grains (ca 972 fps)
