Another Smith M52-2 ammo question.

First topic message reminder :

Hi, Guys. I just bought a new in box unfired M52-2. What is a good load to start development with? I have quite a few 38 Special Smittys but no experience with 38s in an auto. I know people have a hard time loading 32 longs with wadcutters in Euro International pistols. That's why I went with 32 auto in my Pardini. (can't say it's any easier to load for)

I've got Speer 148 HBWCs and lots of Starline brass. What's a good powder? Are cast bullets usable? I've got moulds for wadcutters. Roll crimp or taper?

BE or WST for the special with HBWC.. DEWC cast are ok for the SL.. most use a roll crimp
