    I'm currently carrying Winchester 130gr +P SXTs. They are accurate and shoot to point of aim out of my SP101.

    Other good choices are Remington Golden Saber +Ps and Speer Gold Dot +Ps.

    Talking Re: .38 spcl defensive amo

    Federal's 110 grain HydraShock JHP ammo has been my choice for my 2" snubbie...shoots within the 9 ring at 7 yards and well within the kill zone at 15 yards...further than that, I'd probably want to run like hell.
