Great thread, bet there will be some new additions:
All with 158 gr lead:
38 Spl:
3.5 grs Bullseye
4.0 grs WW231
38 Spl +P:
5.6 grs Power Pistol
5.0 grs Universal
5.2 grs Unique
38 Spl Remington "Hi-Speed" 158 gr lead equivalent (catalog number 6538, circa 1970) - 6.0 grs Power Pistol with 158 gr Speer LRN and CCI 500 primers
(chronograph confirmed that this load approximates velocity of the actual "Hi-Speed" round in actual revolver, not test barrel)

An old thread indeed but one that's always of actuality....even if the 9mm is grinding the popularity of the .38Spl away.
Mine are:
A)H&G no 50 WC sized .358 lubed with liquid Alox from LS Stuff White Lab.Cast soft(aprox BHN 6)on top of 2.6gr 700X in WW target brass.Holds into the 10 ring when I do my part.If out of it I know I done something wrong.
B)NEI 154gr SWC Keith type with my lube(50/50 beeswax/Alox 350 from supplier already mentionned+ hardened with parafin according to the season,soft in winter,harder in summer) over 3.8 gr Titegroup.Non +P and chronoed a little over 900fps from a 6''bbl.

Man I have shot 1000s of 158 gr cast with 3.5 gr of Bullseye in the past but recently I loaded up some 125 gr cast RN intended for 9mm (but they mike .357) and 4.0 gr of 700X to get rid of both and they are tackdrivers out of my 2" M-60!
