148 gr HBWC, 2.7 grains Bullseye. Any case, any primer although I'm partial to W-W & CCI (& Horn's over Speers , no matter really)

Very accurate, cheap, cuts a nice clean hole in targets & will do small game to 50 yds (if I can hit 'em that far

- it won't be the gun's fault), minimal recoil .... got it all. Only thing it doesn't do is duplicate a loading for .38spl defense-type loads.
