Im getting low on .38 bullets and about to order some more. I've been loading 125 plated bullets @1000fps mostly for my wife. She doesn't like to plink with 158s.
I was thinking about trying some hardcast 125s. After working up a load to find something that shares a zero with her 130gr winchester +p rangers in her 2" m15 I was curious to see if I can get them to 1100-1200fps.
I dont really know why I have this fascination with +p .38s. +p loading data usually has hardcast 158s at the same velocity as 125 plated/jacketed.
I just think I should be able to safely get a 125hc faster than a 158. I just like to tinker I guess.
Ill be using be-86 if thst matters.
