Hollow base wadcutters

I found some bullseye the other day. I'm wanting to load some hollow base wadcutters. Do you have a favorite bullet? I'm thinking 148 grain. Thanks

SPEER.
R-P.
W-W.
HORNADY...
ZERO.

Load your HB wadcutters seated flush to the case mouth with 2.7 gr of your Bullseye powder and you'll have the perfect target load for revolvers and autoloaders.

My favorite are the Hornadys. I have never used a swaged HBWC that did not shoot great.

Berry 148gr HBWC and 2.7gr BE is a great target load.

The Zero's work great.

Thanks everyone for the replies. It kinda sounds like most any will do. I'm going to try to go to the gun show today and see what I can find. I bought a case of police reloads a while back. 148 gr hbwc and I'm almost out. These are real accurate out of our 38 snubbies.

When shooting PPC years ago, we shot 148 HBWC's with Federal small pistol primers and 2.5 grains of RedDot. Just over 700fps from a 6" barrel and extremely accurate. With the right conditions, at 50 yds, you could actually see the flight of the bullets down range

Pretty cool when you can see the bullet going down range isn't it? I've seen it a with my Blackhawk and with my 77/22 using sub-sonic with the magnification cranked up.

I perfer Speer HBWCs but they all shoot good.

Ronin: Just curious, I always found RedDot a very good pistol powder (yes I do know it's a shotgun powder) for target loads, but found it very dirty burning in my Smith 52. Your experience with your pistol?

That was the problem with the Red Dot, it was dirty and smoky with those loads. That was about the time that Scots Powder Company came out with their Solo 1000. We tried it and used the same load and got the same accuracy results but boy did it burn a lot cleaner. After that, Solo 1000 was all we used.

That's why we just stuck with 2.7 gr of Bullseye.
