I've loaded the 'backwards wadcutter' loads myself. Back in the 70's, when most handgun bullets didn't expand, they worked better than most other things out of a 38, especially a short barreled one. Today, with bullets that really do expand, there probably is no need for the backwards wadcutter load.
