That's the load to go to if you want your snubby turned into a five shot .380

LOL

I just wish for a 147 to 158gr load. Still bugging federal/ATK about a HST 38spl+P load (up date the old 147gr 38spl +P+ hydra shok)

This seems like an appropriate time to link to the 19 in question.

Like a Fool I sold my 2 M19`s thinking that S&W would always make them. Still like the M10 and M13 better

Hornady seriously needs to make a 130gr Critical Defense that mimics the ballistics/recoil of all of the 130gr ball ammo floating around nowadays.

158gr lead, add a hit from the punch they use to make the HST hollow points, Nyclad the bullet...................

I still have a box of nyclads floating around in the lair.

This^^^^

Although a 147-grain HST +P would probably shoot close enough to POA that I'd be happy with it.

I miss my revolvers....

So, Tam when are you going to Chrono the "lite" loads? For some psychotic reason, I have in my head that I want one of those chintzy 8-ounce Taurus "Views" for deep carry and I'm about half convinced I'd have to load it with 148-grain WCs or maybe HBWC loaded upside down like I'm still in the 1970s.

I had a box of 9mm Nyclads. I might still have 10 of so left.

I shot up my 38 Nyclads.

The only reason I have any is I hid them from myself.
