Lost my cheat sheet
I reloaded 38 S&W years ago. I use Bulleye powder, 145 grain lead bullets from Missouri bullet co. I've been looking on the net but find any data. Can you help me out ? Thanks Joe

Try this page on for size. http://www.reloadammo.com/38sw.htm
Bullseye is an Alliant powder, but their reloading data does not include Bullseye. Different loads are offered for Top Break or solid frame revolvers. Don't forget! test test test! Start about 10% below listed load and work UP!

Per. 42nd edition Lyman reloader's handbook (YUP I am OLD).
146 lead start 2.0gr. bullseye 710 fps.
146 lead MAXIMUM 3.0gr. bullseye 810 fps.
Please start low and develop a load.Courage is being scared to death--but saddling up any way. John Wayne

NRA : "Handloading" manual circa 1980's list 2.4 bullseye with 145 gr lead RN.
As advised start low (10%) work up.It ain't what they call you, it's what you answer to.
