My dog would tear apart the house until she got the traditional cone off. The inflatable donut worked great, she didn’t seem to mind having it on.

I recently bought a S&W 627 Pro and a lot of ICOR shooters use 38 SC. I don’t do ICOR but maybe trying it during the off Cowboy weekends.
Use to shoot a lot of revolver in USPSA, pretty much a dead category now but still fun to play with the revolvers once in awhile.
160 gn round nose over 3 grains of clays or clay dot with give you a soft shooting load that will be close to power factor. Might have to adjust a little depending on your gun. Same brand brass and moons that fit that brass will make reloads much easier.
And to you original question, yes you can use for cowboy but I don’t think there’s a lot of advantage over 38 special.

I shoot a couple of 45-70's trapdoor springfields with both black powder and smokeless loads. For blackpowder I shoot lead cast bullets, but for smokeless I'd like to use red polymer coated bullets. I've gotten good results using ight loads of IMR4198. but 300 grain bullets exceed 1400 fps, and I'm wondering if coated bullets are designed to withstand that type of velocity. I've fired polymer bullets out of pistols with velcities in the 700-900 fps range, and am uncertain how much velocity they are designed to withstand before fouling the bore with coating.
Some of the USPSA guys I shoot with are pushing coated 9mm bullets at 1400 to 1500 fps out of open div guns without any issues.

I pretty sure that Krogers already owns Albertsons/Safeway stores.
Not yet, kroger announced its intentions to purchase Albertsons but is still trying to get regulatory approval. They are trying to close the deal first part of 2024 but are running into significant pushback. Kroger has had to agree to sell off locations and jump through more hoops trying to get approval.

(I use the pink Clay Buster 3/4 ounce wad) with a 7/8 ounce shot bar gives me the proper stack height for a good crimp.
Agree. 3/4 wad with 7/8 load or 7/8 wad with 1oz load. Brings the stack up to the right height with the reduced powder charge.
All good powder choices list by others, finding them is the challenge.
seems I have seen clay dot and extra lite available recently online.
Good LuckLF.
