I "just love" physics questions with multiple variables, but the questioner only specifies one variable...weight of bullet is not the only factor, probably not the critical factor. Weight of gun and specific impulse of cartridge are very important.
The way I answer a question like this in loading class is if your .38 and 9mm bullets are pulling in revolvers, you have a screwed up reload, or else a huge mismatch in equipment. Case sizing is critical, and the crimp alone won't hold it.
I haven't shot all the ammo in the world, but Fiocchi is pretty hot and works fine for me. Pick a brand you like and try it in your revolver to be sure.
