38 S&W trail boss loads.

[Alberta Woodsman]

Does anybody have a trail boss load for 38s&w? I'm using 158gr semi-wadcutter and when I cast some I have some full wadcutter. I loaded some up with 2.8grs unique which I shall shoot when the revolver arrives.

You can stuff it up with 3 grains of trailboss no problem. I would not load over that as there is no point. If its webly you going to shoot then make sure you seat the bullets deeper and crimp them good as they tend to dislodge bullets out. SW revolvers are much more sturdier and can handle much more pressure than this cartridge can dish out.

It is neither a webly or a S&W. I recently bought a top break Forehand arms 38s&w. I figure I use trailboss loads a bit lighter than 38special ones.
