GUN DETAILS | Firedd in both a S&W mod. 28-2, and a second gen. new mod. blackhawk. The S&W appeared to prefer this load more than the Ruger, though both guns more than adequate accuracy for mid range field loads. |
OTHER DESCRIPTION | For general field use when top velocities and heavy recoil are not wanted, this load works well. |

GUN DETAILS | Ruger Security-Six in .357 Magnum S&W Highway Patrolman S&W Model 19 Taurus Model 65 4" barrels on all of these. |
OTHER DESCRIPTION | This is a really accurate load, apparently no matter what gun it's fired out of. It feels about like a "3/4-house " load, not quite full factory punch, but enough to be very enjoyable. Recoil is quite manageable for reasonably strong hands, but weaker hands might need gloves, depending on the gun's grip. No leading whatsoever. Bullet strength is between 15 and 16 BHN with this charge. Appears to be a perfect match to this load's pressure. Bullet lube is two coats of liquid Alox. |
