The GM3 load posted earlier refers to .357 loads used in a lever action rifle NOT.38 special.Lever357 wrote:Bought my reloading gear last week at the shooting show and the powder I got is Vectan GM3. This is not listed in my Lee handbook.
Was wondering if people had experience of it and what they would recommend for a 158gm bullet in .38 Special case. Chap I bought it off reckoned 3.8 grains of powder.
Do not use this data for .38 special

As UK rifleman states, the data given in that link is for .357 NOT .38 - otherwise I would not have started the post!!
