[QUOTE="Gunpoor, post: 912026, member: 8358"] I have shot the 158 grain LSWC bullets in 38SPCL with 4.0 grains of W231 for a velocity of 775 ft/sec from my 4" barreled revolver. This load is very mild recoiling and more accurate than most shooters including me. I think 4.4 grains of W231 over your 125 plated bullets would be a wonderful load for your daughter, as 231 is a very predictable and versatile powder. This load at 4.4 falls in the middle of the charge between Min and Max loads. Sorry that I can't give some hands on experience but I have never shot 125 grain bullets in the 38. If I have it has been too long to remember the specifics. [/QUOTE]
