Back in another place and time there was a gun writer by the name of Sketer Skelton. I appreciated his perspective on guns and ammo. In an article on the .38 Special he suggested a all-round load that would meet just about all needs was a 158-160 gr. lead SWC over 5.0 gr. of Unique. Of course I tried it out. I liked it. Still do. It is a very useful full-power service load that has worked extremely well in every revolver I've ever owned.
