Looking to develop a general target shooting load for 38 SPL using 125GR Hornady XTPs and W231 powder. Trying to figure out my staring load.
Lyman shows 3.9 to 5.1 OAL 1.470
Hornady shows 4.8 to 5.1 OAL 1.450
Hodgdon shows 4.3 to 4.9 with OAL of 1.455
I'm leaning towards starting at 4.5 with OAL 1.455 and perhaps working up to 4.8 seeing which groups better...
Will be shooting out of 5.5" barrel.
