Need some 38 spl data....

[fourrobert13]

I came accross some free 125gr SWC to load up for my 38 special, but there is a problem, I can't find any data for this bullet. They are Vance bullets if that helps any one. I am also using Bullseye powder. Any info would be appriciated.

Alliant lists 125 grain lead "Cowboy" data for Bullseye and 38 spec here:

I use 125 grain "9mm" bullets I cast in my 38 special ammo using Clays and 700x, and they seem to work pretty well. Using cowboy as part of a data search will turn up a pretty decent amount of data.

Good luck.

I never looked at the cowboy data. I will check that out.

Thanks
