Question about hot 38 loads using pure lead.

I have been thinking about casting either Ideal 358250 or RCBS 38-162-swc in pure lead for use as a SD rounds for the house. I was wondering if anybody has tried to use pure in a hot 38/357 load gas checked or not. I like the idea of a heavy soft boolit to expand.

I find 50/50, WW/pure, expands well at 38 Spc. velocities. I want enough penetration to go through heavy clothing.
