    .38 Special BBWC Load Check

    My starting load was 3.8gr of Unique, and was the only load I actually fired (Post #6). I had 5.3gr listed as the max load in my original post to give me the top end.

    .38 Special BBWC Load Check

    This load has turned into a head scratcher for me. GP100 liked them a lot, no issues at all and found a good load that was accurate. The J-Frame didn't get past the first set. I fired off 2 rounds at 3.8gr and I filled the entire barrel's rifle with lead, couldn't even finish testing since I...

    Remora's Having A Sale Currently

    I opted for the Micro holster from Remora which has a clip design. I had considered Sticky at the time but I wanted a single clip design, and unfortunately Sticky doesn't have any options.

    Who's gearing up for doves?

    Good to know about 9's being too light, I happen to have some 7-1/2's that are game load speeds that'll work good too. Trying to pack light, backpack, 8 plastic decoys, mojo (gave in a bought one), decoy ground stakes, and maybe my camp stool instead of the bucket. It's only a 1/4 mile hike to...
