Open minor load for 38 super comp


jcl

Recommended Posts

I did some searching and came up with nothing, but I need some load data for my 38 super comp to shoot minor. I have HS 6, power pistol and for bullets I have 115 HAP, 125 RN and 147 RN.

Thanks Jim

For mid-minor 140-145pf-ish loads I like to use about 8.0 - 8.7 grains HS-6 with a 115 grain RN bullet @ 1.250. Soft load with plenty of oomph to knock down steel. Only real down side is that HS-6 runs dirty when not used at higher pressures.

You could use HS-6 with any of the bullets you have and hodgdon's load site site has data for all those bullet weights with HS-6.

Good Luck!

Use Power Pistol it will burn cleaner than HS-6 at medium pressure/loads

Get the info from web-site on 38 super or 38 super +p loads and work up till the gun runs reliably

Mine will run smoothly with 7 lb springs but your may be different

I load WSF for my steel/ med range loads in 38SC
