hi gentlemen. i just put a 627 pc snubby on layaway. will pickup in four days!!!! feel like a lil kid waitin for santa lol. also just purchased power pro mp 300 powder. any reloading data for 158 xtps? or fav loads for this snubby. been shootin 686 no dash, fav load 158 xtp over 16.5 gn 296. breaking clay skeets consistently out to 60 yds. gettin better all the time with it, why i bought the snub s and w revolvers rock!!! 357 mag 8 x!!

686 6 inch just so you all know, also no rear sights-for now. first pistol larger than 22. removing rears made my untrained eyes focus on front sight, won local shooting contest for open revolvers this way. gun is amazingly accurate with hand loads. also my first forum, virgin at all rthhis. lol any info would be great, cant wait for snubby these guns have respaRKED MY INTERESTIN SHOOTING

What works good in a long barreled revolver should work good in a snub. Only snub I load for is my SW 629, so I can't help you with snub .357 loads. I can say my 6" .357 likes the 357 Action Missouri Bullet Co. LSWC over 12 grains of AA #9.

thanks for the reply, will have to try that load, for sure. have really enjoyed the versatility of this caliber, can make 38 so slow with lead bullets they can be seen sometimes when standing behind my girlfriend shooting, and she hits paper pretty damn good at fifty, put em in 357 brass for me their money at medium speeds, just alot of fun and possibilities, of course within the guidelines intended. tyhanks again will trry for sure
