Looky at what else I found. It's actually hotter than what I'd prefer, but perhaps it might appeal to others. You can't beat the price!

It's not my intention to shill for Midway, this is just where I found it in stock.

“I've shot a number of deer with Remington WCs. From a 642 they "stick" when they hit the skull, leave a large entry wound, don't exit, and pulp the brain. Instant lights out. On double lung shots I've noted that on the entry side WCs through a rib (deer ribs are much large and more robust that people ribs for anyone who hasn't seen one) make a splintered hole large than the bullet, will penetrate all the way through, have enough energy to penetrate the rib on the far side and get stuck under the skin. JHPs that I've made similar shots with, like Critical Defense, tend to leave a bullet sized clean hole in the rib on the entry side, like it's been hit with a drill bit.
I've seen very, very few JHPs actually expand from a snub. Even one's designed for that use. Many old school loads, such as the 110gr +P+, that do expand fail to penetrate nearly enough for my comfort.”
Just to be clear the main reason I posted this was because of the link in th OP. When you look at the penetration of 38 loads from a 2” barrel nothing really penetrates like a wadcutter unless you go to +p velocities. Another observation was how poorly most .38 loads from a 2” perform. It helped me really see it with all the data in one chart.
