38 Special load data

[Dirt]

Can anyone do me a favour and lookup some loads for 158Gr JHP in 38 Special with Alliant Unique and/or Hodgdon Universal Clays.

I've found a load of 4.2 for Unique and 4.4 for Universal but I couldn't find if these were starting, average or max.

Thanks guys

They are max but if you go to +P loads you can go to 4.7 with Universal and 4.4 with Unique.

Thanks RePete ... I'll be shooting with a S&W 686 .357 so I think I'm pretty safe with these loads then

You will be well within limits using the 686...Nice gun and a real sweetheart to shoot..
Enjoy it
