While testing some 9mm loads, I also loaded up a few 38 special loads
to put down range, while I was at the range.

I had four 158 Lwc loads that I wanted to check out again to see
if one was better than the others.
Good idea but it was one of those days where I did not like the outcome.
Getting old and not being as good as I once was, is really the pits
but it is still fun to get out and shoot.

However, I did toss in two loads with the "Micro" Federal 130gr. HST bullet
that was made for the 38 short barrel revolvers, that has worked well for me
in fps and accuracy, in all my thest.

Here is my target and probably the last of my testing for my
paper killing loads, out of the M49.
Mama, told me that all this paper , around the house, is a fire hazard !!

Awesome. That Reddot load looks great and the 231 isn't bad either.
 
My EDC load in my 49 no dash is the Speer 135 Gold Dot short barrel and my practice load is 146 HP/SWC Lee over WW231. Works well in 2 to 6 inch barrel revolvers.
