Hello to everybody.
I've just joined this forum.
I'm an enthusiast in WW2 US Military weapons.
I'm going to reload some 38 special rounds for my Colt Commando.
I'll use 158 grains bullets both FMJ and RNBB lead.
As I already own Vihtavuori N110 powder I use for M1 carbine in conjuction with 110 grains FMJ bullets, it's the faster Vihtavuori rifle powder I read it can be used in big bore handguns with heavy bullets, can it be succesfully and above all SAFELY used for 38 special loads?
If positive can somebody indicate any load?
Are small pistol primers O.K. for this powder used in an handgun or small rifle primers should be preferred?
Any suggestion is welcome.
Thank you.
