There is nothing more accurate at PPC than 148 gr8 HBWC (lead) using 2.8 gr of 231 and a tight crimp with Starline 38 Special brass & a Federal Small pistol primer. 594/600 at the real distances of 24 rnds at 50 yds, 24 rnds at 25 yes, and 12 rnds at 7.5 yds

That's exactly the load I found in the 1980s.  Ream the primer pockets to remove flash.  Trim all the cases to same length.  25 yrds it's one hole.  You can see multiple bullets going through that hole but you can't count them
