I just started with reloading and am using a lee classic turret. When I bought my first round of supplies at a local gun show This is what I purchased:
Win 231 powder
500 Once fired Whinchester .38 Special Brass
500 125 grain JHP
500 WInchester Small pistol Primers
Using information in my book I loaded my first 50 rounds with 4.6 grains of the Win 231. The start load was 4.3 and the never exceed was 4.9 so I figured I would split the difference. I plan to use these in my Rossi R92 levergun for some basic plinking. Does this sound like a decent load? If others have any advice given my components it would also be appreciated. Next time I will be getting basic lead bullets or wadcutters, but this is what I have for now. Thanks in advance for the help.
