Talk to high_country. He'll fix you up with something suitable.

Don't be foolish (or worse). Take him up on it.

I would not do it either. But I used to know a guy who reloaded for a 7.5 inch Virginia Dragoon in 44 mag just by dipping the empty case into a bowl of IMR 3031 and then seating a bullet.

They went bang when he pulled the trigger.

I concur. I run 2.7 gr. Bullseye or 3.1 gr. W231 under a Lyman #358495, a 148 gr. wadcutter in .38 SPL. About the only real difference is your double ended wadcutter is probably seat flush wit the case mouth while my bullet has a crimp groove. A pound of either powder will charge an awful lot of .38 brass.

I’ve got an unopened 1 pound jug of Bullseye, but I’m in Central Texas. Do you know a HazMat shipper in my area?
