Both the Treasury and FBI .38 Special loads..........
Have a fairly proven track record of success in actual shootings....probably about as good as most out there...
Surely good enought for a pocket pistol...
Still it seems that actual shootings seem to turn out better with multiple hits on target and while more powerful...the three five seven is a handful in the little revolvers...at least I hear...never shot full power 357 in a J frame...
Personally, I carry the FBI load in my Smith Bodyguard....
