OK, I got one for the regulars on this forum.
In the most recent issue of Handloader Magazine, Brian Pearce says,
that he doesn't recommend 158 gr jacketed bullets for .38 special loadings.
His reasoning is that he's seen some get stuck in the barrel.
To me it sounds like he's talkin' out of his butt.
I've used 1,000s of 158 gr jhp & the only time I got one stuck,
is totally my fault for making a squib.
So who should be flamed, Pearce or me?
