I'm interested in some light plinking/fun loads for my 38's.
I see the light loads for full wadcutters everywhere. My question is, can I do the same thing with 158gr SWC's and get the same (or similar) results as far as a range load, or is there some inherent quality of wadcutters that does not translate well to other bullet shapes?
I understand that i'll need to use load data for the correct bullet weight, it just seems harder to find a wadcutter mold, and it seems i'm stumbling over SWC molds constantly.
