Default RE: 38 & 357 loads

A friend of mine turned me on to a great plinking load for 38 that in the guns we've tried it in gives good accuracy for very little money. I have the Lee mould for the 105gr SWC (358-105-SWC) and mould them with wheel weights that I get for free. I load them over 3.5gr of Bullseye. I figure I get about 1800 to 2000 rounds out of a pound of powder and I can mould up a 1000 bullets and size them in less than a day. The primers are the most expensive part at around 2 to 2.5 cents each. I figure I have 4 to 5 cents per round in them.
