38supercomp and autocomp

[ParaGunner]

Looking for some starting data for 38sc, 124gr bullets,5" barrel with comp and 4 holes. Winchester Autocomp powder.

Did some searching and couldn't find anything. 

Thanks

I use WAC in my 9mm Major loads, and I'm sure it's fine for .38 SC, 

 

BUT,

 

the advantage of .38 SC is that there are other, much better, powders

to use than WAC.

 

If you happen to have a whole lot of it and need to use it anyway, I'd start

with about 7.5 gr at 1.165" OAL, and work up, slowly, with a chrono.

Just looking for a few starting suggestions. I was thinking starting in the 6.5-7 GRN area. 38sc will have a 1.25 oal

That should work - sorry about the OAL - I keep thinking 9mm, not .38 SC.

Start around 7.0 and work up in .2 intervals.
