Some of the "Mad Chemists" around here load them.
Like the 1970 Speer Reloading Manual #8 .....It was my first Speer Manual and I used it for many years. My only 38 special / 357 Magnum was a Ruger Blackhawk , thank goodness .
We just believed Speer knew what they were doing and went with the data . Exciting times back then !
