Ralph , why did you mention making shot shells for your 38 ? You know how I am ! Expect a PM for loading instructions . You know I have plenty of 38 Brass still , something different for me to try ! I have a few 38 shot shell but factory made . They have a blue plastic top . Never fired one yet ! Another adventure for Leo ! Thanks to Ralph !:whistle::rolleyes:o_O:LOL: Wait ... I still need to get some Unique ! As you know that HS-6 is a PIA for recipes .:LOL:

Old Goat just as bad ! I haven't put that 22 mag cylinder In my Ruger in years ! I might try that also , like my little Cowboy mouse Gun !:) My problem is I'd have to find some venomous snakes to shoot @ , I heard of Copper Heads in Ct. but never saw one here in Ri .

Took this picture today. Charter Arms Bulldog .44 Special. Two shells loaded with #7 1/2 shot and three shells loaded with 240 grain semi-wadcutters. Both with Unique powder.

Summer Carry around the homestead.

Ralph , I LOVE that Bull Dog & you keep it clean , because that finish shows powder flash ! At least my Ruger does . Red , every time I see a Judge I wonder why I don't have one in my collection .

10.5 grains unique,large pistol primers 255 grain hornady jhp.will stop about any critter on north american soil. 3 screw ruger blackhawk 7.5" pipe.if thats not stout enough add 1 more grain a blackhawk will digest it.

I can use other powder and up the load too but this load does fine. The heavy load of unique dropped a buck at 50 yards 1 shot to eye fell instantly

My next jug of powder is " Unique " ! I bought that Hs-6 to get started & soon leaned it wasn't the best powder . I wish they had it stock that day @ 50 percent off because Ralph told me to start w/ that . After researching the same 70's Speer manual we both have I know why . A lot more recipes ! Buying the Hs-6 powder was a big Newbie mistake .:whistle: Though it shoots well w/ 6.1 g & a 148 cast WC using a Mag primer in my Ruger 357 & I lightened the powder loads for my short piped S&W mod 10 . (38spl loads ):)
