I would guess that a HPSWC would do a good job. I think i'd enlarge the hole a bit to emulate the 'flying ashtray' idea.

As of now I have 135 gr Speer short barrel Gold Dots in my snubs. i have them loaded for 850 fps but i can get them up to 950 if I want to take the pain. My wife is better off with the milder load, too.
I am approaching the geezer stage of life. A writer for guns and ammo in about 1980-82 (Rick Jamison ) did tests with a M-64 with the skinny BBL. And if I remember right, they did very well. Also a friend in High School (1970's) made some up and they were a curse on rabbits.
