Inspired by the other thread, I am curious what folks carry in their J-frames and other snubnose .38 S&W Special revolvers. I will admit that I have typically given it much less thought than the ammo I choose for my 9mm and .45 ACP carry guns. My thinking has been that I am unlikely to get enough velocity for reliable expansion anyway, so it doesn't matter too much.
As I think about it now, this is foolish. Aside from expansion, things like optimal bullet weight, flash in low light, and ease of case extraction (e.g. nickel versus brass), all matter.
I have been vaguely thinking about experimenting with hand loads using various powders and bullets to see what kind of results I can get on the chrono, but it has not yet become a priority.
What loads do others carry in their snubbies?
