I use them routinely in almost all handgun rounds. I've pushed coated bullets from Bayoux to 1200 fps in the .357 magnum with excellent results.

We may lose and we may win, but we will never be here again.......
I load and shoot the Bayou Bullets in my 9mm. Good to go.
Thanks gentlemen. I just ordered 1000 135 grain 38/357 bullets from Bayou. Any suggestions for a training load powder charge? Best, ELN.
All of your modern coated stuff is great.
I send my dad a small flat rate of the 158gr semi wads for his birthday. I've shot enough of his thru his mid 80's 4" 686 square butt to know they work great and are lazer beams out of those guns. He likes not dealing with wax and smoke. https://www.thebluebullets.com/produ...mfr-158-38.htm

3.6 grains of WST yields about 775 FPS out of a 4” GP-100 and 725 FPS out of my ‘49 2” S&W M&P.
For a +P equivalent practice load that is still a standard .38 pressure load according to the data, try 4.6 grains of BE-86 which gives a MV of 880 FPS out of the same .38 GP-100 and 772 FPS our of a 2” S&W M60.
Bullet is 158 grain Georgia Arms cast SWC.

Any coated full wadcutter profile bullets for .38?
EDIT: Nevermind, SNS casting sells them.
