Yes, he did. I buddy of mine read all his articles, he was a fan. Just so happens he blew up his own .38.

I only tried one of his reloads once. A .35 Remington in a 336. Nothing bad happened but ah, no thanks. I was more into downloading my .44 Magnum loads. And I rolled very soft shooting 148gr. wadcutters for practice.
