[QUOTE="Rustygun, post: 3527327, member: 4711"] Asking the seasoned reloaders here what is your favorite bullet for reloading 38/357? I have almost used up my inventory of bullets in this caliber and was about to place an order understanding it might take 10-12 weeks to receive anything. I have loaded mostly 38 with bullets that range from lead 148gn DEWC to Hornady 158 gn and 125 gn XTP hollow points, and 125 gn polymer coated lead. I have accumulated enough 357 brass that I can load a couple hundred and am looking for a bullet that you have tried in both 38 & 357 with good results. I am considering ordering a quantity (1000 or more) that will last me for a while. I am considering reordering 125 FP polymer coated from precision bullet ([URL]https://precisionbullets.com/product/38-125-fp/[/URL]). when they show available again, but I think they state these Bullets should not exceed 1250 FPS and in 357 you will be flirting or exceeding that speed. I was gifted a bag of about 500 148gn no name DEWC and have to say these are amazingly accurate. Recently shot 18 rounds into a 3” circle free hand at 10 yards. I am very satisfied with that considering how blurry the target is at that distance with these old eyes. I currently have 500 DEWC in my shopping cart at X-treme Bullets but have no experience with wad cutters at 1300-1400 FPS velocities in 357 mag. [/QUOTE]
