I shoot Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel 135 grain .38 Special +P and Hornady Critical Defense 110 grain .38 Special standard pressure out of an Airweight J-frame; I've also put boxes of WWB through it.

I feel no discernible difference in recoil, flash and report between any of these rounds -- all quite manageable.
