Went to test some rounds this morning and it was so nice I went back this afternoon. The morning rounds were interesting as I was shooting 38 special with (Hold On) Trailboss just for laughs. I had good data from Hodgedon web site and could load 2.8 to 4 safely and one step safer I shot these in a 357 mag revolver. I was shooting 158 JHP. Shooting the 357 was like shooting a 22 but the S&W airweight was very stout seems like. I will load some more just to get rid if the powder. Oh I did load 3.5 if anyone cares. It seemed like a hand full in the airweight but I could go a little higher.  At 3.5 I can load like 2000 38 special but I don't think I will as I don't shoot 38 very often.

Round two this afternoon I was shooting 9mm 147g jhp in a S&W 910s that I had problems developing a round for like a few years ago. Someone at Handloads.com said if I went to 147g from 115 it would print higher and it did so I was shooting that with a Sig Sauer and of course the Sig outshot the Smith but barely and I wasn't doing my job very well anyway. Well that's it for now.  Craig

yeah it's like 90 here and I was going to go today but not sure I am going to make it. Craig

P.S. it is still nice the Trailboss worked as I now have a limited use for it.
