The OP is only a few days short of being 9 years old but since I guess many model 52 owners like me might be interested,here is my experience;
Brass:WW but only the one for target loads(2 cannelures around)
bullet:my own swaged 148 HBWC at .358
Powder:either 2.6 of 700X or 2.3 of Nitro 100 or 2.7 Bullseye
roll crimp using Lee FCD die
My 52 is a -1 model.Problem to feed only when the gun gets dirty(over 500rds without cleaning).At that point,a small nudge at the back of the slide will complete the chambering job.I finish the shooting session and then,it is time for the ultrasonic cleaner.
Yes,the thing is way more accurate than I can be with any of the 3 above mentionned loads.
