^^^^what he said. VERY good load. Side-by-side with the W-W 125gr .38 JHP, this load has more oomph. Originally loaded in the late 60s/early 70s with a slow burning powder, the powder in today's round seems quicker burning. Be interesting to chrono this in 6". This load is becoming available in WM again after a long absence, at least here in the valley.
