You did not state caliber, but I'll assume .38. Never heard of anyone using .38 WC as light as 125 grains. 148 is standard. I've run into moulds a little lighter and a little heavier, but I have never run into anyone at a serious match shooting anything but 148 WC. They are the gold standard for PPC shooters. You are unlikely to beat them for accuracy.

They also make a pretty decent small game load at short ranges. Normal velocity is about 800 fps and trajectory can be a problem past 25-30 yards.
