Hi All,
Once again I'm back to lean on the brain trust that is NES.
I treated myself to an 8 shot, Smith & Wesson Performance Center Model 627, with a 2.625 barrel length.
I'm already reloading both 38 Special and 357 Magnum for my 8 shot, 5 inch barreled Smith & Wesson Model 327 TRR8
I see that there is ammoniation made specifically for shot barrels, what makes a short barrel load? I assume just less powder or is it different powder (faster burning).
I use Titegroup on my 38 Specials and Lil' Gun on the 357 Magnum loads currently for the TRR8, apart from the tight group being a little dirty it works out quite well.
What can you expect from a short barrel load vs normal load and is it worth making separate loads?
Thanks in advance.
Harry
