I loaded Laser Cast 146 grain lead DEWC over 3.2 grains of Bullseye in .38 Spl R-P brass. Yesterday, I shot them at the range. The cloud of smoke was impressive, to say the least. After shooting 96 of 'em, my revolver was filthy. Is this normal for all lead, or just Laser Cast? Or, is there something I'm missing?
My normal load is West Coast 158 gr plated SWC with the same powder and brass. They shoot very well; I use 'em in casual competition. Normally load and shoot 300 per week.
In their defense, the DEWC's did make very neat holes in paper!
