Okay, so I have a bunch of regular primers for .38spl (small pistol), and am thinking of working up some smokin' .357 loads for Friday when I'm hitting the range next. I'm planning on loading up some old 158gr Speer JHPs with some 2400, but am curious--will the regular small pistol primers suffice for .357 mag loads, or do I need to drive 10 miles to go to the nearest place that sells primers? :banghead:
And, as a second question.....given a choice between 125gr. XTP and 158gr Speer JHPs, what would be a better bullet choice for a personal-protection in a .357 load that uses 2400?
