I will say that some other posters suggest the Buffalo Bore loads. I ran a box of the 38 +P "heavy duty" loads through my 4 inch Python. That was also very accurate and no where near the leading that I got from the Winchester lead SWHP load. If you do go with the traditional 158 gr SWHP; go with the Buffalo Bore loads.
The reason for that is the bullets are gas checked.
