I don't think I've had any of them long enough to put 1000 rounds through and rotating 5-6 guns spreads out the wear and tear, if there IS wear and tear.

The compact 9mms get standard load Gold dot or Hornady XTP, right now I have some Golden Sabers.

My J frame .38s get +P Speer Short Barrel.

I've never messed with +P+ stuff.

For my HD .357 686 I use low end .357 loads for in the house to keep our ears from being blasted out. My wife has super sensitive ears. They are much better than any .38 round you can buy, though.

I handload, and I have pushed the max on standard and +P but I haven't gone out of the published realm.
