For my .38 I have been using HSM 158 gr. LSWC. For my .357 I use Hornady 158 gr. FP/XTP. I need some more of the LSWC but my supplier is out. They do have the same thing in a "hard cast". Is there a down side to using the hard cast? I would not think my .38 or the .357 would care which I used for targets. I could push them faster than the softs without leading problems in the .357. They might work good as a defensive load (think black bears) in the woods.
Any thoughts? Anybody know the BHN rating of these HSM 158 gr. LSWC hard cast?
How fast could I push them in my .357 before I get leading problems?
Thanks...
