I've got a S&W 696 on order. Its built on the L frame and has a 3" barrel.

I don't have a problem with heavier recoiling loads...but, my previously broken wrist does.

I'm looking for a accurate, medium load using lead swc bullets in the 200gr to 240gr range. Usage will be for target/practice and home defense. I need a powder that will meter accurately in my Dillon 550.

TIA.
