my load for 38spl...first timer!

Post by HaveBlue83 »

So i finally bought a reloader! Got a single stage in march and started with precision .223 for out to 600yds. After i got that to shoot .5moa i went to 38spl. Easier but harder messing with dies.

I started with a simple 5.5gr of HS-6 and cci small pistols with some laser cast 158gr flat tips and i got about a 2" group at 50yds with them. Nice subsonic load. I forgot to take a pic but 3 were tight and 2 were about an inch lower. Stnding supported off a tree hehehe. I know if i benched it the group would be better. Just using irons and having fun.

Great fun, very happy. Still loving this 16" trapper R92.

Just wanted to post my first load and results.
