Thanks sir - I've actually loaded that bullet, except in HP form in .38, intended for a S&W Heavy Duty 4". In HP form, it's just a tad lighter, so a wee bit more 2400 was put behind it.

Shoots exactly to POA in that ol' .38 HD, and I like that it shares a similarity with the 'Hi-Speed' loads those guns were designed for. And, it does fine in most of my .357's, even though I've not tried it in my Python yet.

Thanks for the good suggestion.
