    Why thank you Sir. Most generous of you.

    Still haven't heard anything on the 315 NG. It's the same size as the 2-1/2" M-19 but considerably lighter and it is a 38 Special.

    You are correct and I wasn't. I have no interest or experience with Ruger's LCRs and didn't know they offered a 3". Not sure what penance I should perform.

    Neither Ruger nor S&W make a "Lightweight 3" 38 Special" . Taurus does, so there you have it.

    O3,

    In my experience (more than many but not as good as some) cannelures serve two purposes for revolver bullets.
