Re: 38 cal. revolver

According to Wikipedia, .38 LC bullet diameter is .361, as opposed to the .357 for .38 Special. This small disparity may be why you're getting the results that you are. Your timing could also be a little off, causing the cylinders to not quite line up, causing it to "spit" lead off one side. You may have a gunsmith check it out.

This day and age, .38 LC is an uncommon round, though apparently it's still used in Cowboy-action shooting. You can find some at Midway:

Cabela's carries one brand:

I'm sure you can find it elsewhere, as well. Looking at the pricing, it's likely you could save a lot of money reloading it.
