Lightweight guns are a joy to carry but recoil increases with the power of ammo. A steel frame model 60 will reduce the recoil to 1/2 of what the air weight has. Practice with standard pressure 158gr LRN or 148gr WC carry +p for defense. If you have to use the +P in a defense situation you won't notice the extra recoil. You can use something like Hornady 110 gr FTX loads in standard pressure for a light load but its probably no better than the standard pressure 158gr LRN out of a 2" barrel.

Frankly the LRN's are vilified as poor man stoppers but they're better than a stick and no one wants to be shot with anything
