If you limit yourself to just one powder, then you'll have to compromise on your loads. You'll either have standard .38 loads and light .357 loads, or you'll have hot .38 loads (or, more likely, lots of unburned powder), and standard .357 loads.

I'd recommend that you really reconsider the "one powder" limitation.
