I use 3.0 gr. of bulls eye and a 158 gr. lwc in my 2" snubbie for practice. The groove in the bullet are lubed.

Welcome to the forum. Bullseye should be a good powder for a shoort barrel as it burns pretty fast. I shoot mostly my 50th Anniversary Blackhawk or my Marlin 1894 and preder the slower burning powders.
