Colt Official Police , 4" , 38 Special

[Ben]

Lyman 358429, 3.5 grs. of B'Eye.
On our previous outing with the revolver , we shot 148 gr. W/Cs
with 2.8 of B'Eye. The revolver shot low. With the fixed sights,
it seemed like a good option to try a heavier bullet. Our 429's weigh
171 grs.

BINGO ! It worked.

That’s great. It’s on now according to the post it!
My new to me OP .38 Special is printing high with 158 Speer swaged hp over 3.5 Red Dot.
I’m going the other direction with 105 SWC at high velocity to see what happens.
