When I was shooting PPC back in the 70's and early 80's, I was putting 1,500 rounds of .38 HBWC's downrange every week in practice and 360 each weekend for matches. The standard load was 2.7 grains of Bullseye and the HBWC seated flush with the case mouth. It's an exceedingly accurate load out to 50 yards. The only caveat is to make sure you don't double or triple charge the case with those small amounts of fast powder. It makes your revolver grenade and upsets the other shooters. It happened to the guy next to me in a match and pieces went everywhere.
Hope this helps.
