I just received a set of dies for my .38 S&W but before I get started I am looking for information on reloading for this older round.
I have been able to find a couple manufacturers that offer LRN in .360" and .361" with a BHN of 12. These should work for the S&W. Next I would like to use either Titegroup or W231 (because I have both on hand and have experience using them in my .45acp).
Does anyone on this forum reload for the old S&W? I'll be shooting them through an Iver Johnson Trailsman 66 (manufactured between 1961 and 1964). The Trailsman is a top break so I want to keep the loads nice and mild.
Does anyone have any information or experiences they would like to pass along?
