.38 Special +P Data

[HayesGreener]

I like the 158gr Remington SJHP in my 4” 10’s and 64. The 125gr+P version ain’t too shabby, either.

That, or the classic FBI load; 158gr SWC-HP +P.

This is the round my agencies used in the late 70's-early 80's before we switched to semi-autos. To my recollection it worked pretty well on miscreants. A couple years ago when I had feral hogs in one of my traps on a whim I used some of it in my Model 19 to drop a couple of hogs. It worked OK but for that task I usually default to my SIG 10MM.
