Haven’t loaded 38s in 15 years

It’s always fun for your meat computer to get back into a caliber after a long hiatus, just finding all the partsis a challenge

These are 158gr SWC from Eggleston, they are some of the best value I have came across. Shot 1,000s of their bullets in 300 Blackout with success. I expect the same from these.

Thanks for the reminder. It's about time I did the same.

very nice. The 158gr LSWC is my favorite bullet in both .38 special and .357 magnum.

Doesn't look like much of a crimp on those jake556.

I'm kinda looking at 357 in the not so distant future.
Though I'm heavily exploiting 9mm as much as I can due to it's economics, It's just not in all the platforms I'd like to see it in.
So ... 38, 357, 350 legend.

I make my own......Then mine the berm......Recast and shoot again......Some of my lead has probably been down the barrel 2-3 tijmes.

Yeah probably could have added more, these drop in nicely and are holding the bullet tight, we will see.

Excuse my ignorance, but what is a "meat computer"?

I laughed when I first heard it, yeah its your brain

Been a while here, too....

I had plenty enough .38s left over to keep me happy, but recently ran out. Rather than paying $30 at the store for it, I warmed up my .38 reloading dies and had a great time. I'm going to make about 100 more for my next range trip. Used Missouri double-ended 148 gr. wadcutters. Worked GREAT!
