I do my reloading in the winter to get ready for the next season. I shoot a fare amount of 38/357’s & use 3 different bullets. Here are some 38 rn & rnfp loads along with 38 P+ loads & 357’s with the same bullets.

The 500 empty 357 cases in the coffee can in the center of the picture divides the 38’s (left) & the 357’s (right). The molds/bullets that I like to use are (left 358495 WC), (center lee rnfp) & (right 358311 rn). I need to cast more rn bullets, loaded all that I cast.

I’m going to use those 500 357 cases & 1000 38 cases that I have to load the WC’s. The picture shows my loads, (left is a sized/lubed bullet), (center 357 S&W load) & (right contender 357 load). These WC bullets are flat out devastating. Their excellent for target work & hit like a hammer when their loaded hot.

And of course no thread wouldn’t be complete without a little pistol porn to go with all those bullets, my baby.

I bought & sold an easy 20+ 38/357’s over the years; I bought that one new in 1987 & will never part with it. That pistol hasn’t had 500 jacketed bullets down its bore but I had to send it back to S&W in 2006 to get it rebuilt. I shot enough cast bullets/reloads to wear the timing out on it.
