[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3207099, member: 15054"] I could not stand it anymore. I loaded up 2 38 special cases with Powder coated 168gr weighed lead bullets. No gas check it is a Lee 158 gr mold that these came from ..I have 296 powder not 110 so I loaded 8 gr and 10 gr and crimped the cases a little and primers are cci 500. Seated the bullets to 1.502" and shot them from my 6" 357 mag revolver. Powder puff load is one thing I will say. I really expected more kick or something. barely any muzzle climb. Not loud either.. but I did have ear plugs in. This is Winchester 296 ball powder from 2016 and I just opened it today for these 2 bullets. I shot them into an old encyclopedia and recovered the lead. Here you go. [/QUOTE]
