38 special?

I had a 637 for a while, I shot alot of loads through it, +p and not, and the only load that felt "light" was a 148gr wadcutter. You can contact S&W with the serial # and they will tell you the year it was built and if it can withstand +p. After that I think 158 lswchp's work fine. I carried Corbon DPX with 135gr +p Gold Dots as reloads.

I would recommend regular standard lead wad-cutters. Recoil is very tolerable, the lead deforms well and expands admirably on bone. Two or three rounds through the chest are going to collapse lungs and make breathing seriously difficult because those rounds cut a nice round hole through the chest wall through which blood can easily also flow.

Don't underestimate your adversary. They may have a pocketful of little corks.:(


I'm just busting your chops. The .38 is one of my all time favs.
