Keep in mind some of today's FBI loads aren't so hot and might not give best expansion from a 1 7/8" bbl. Check out Speer's short barrel gold dot or the Remington Golden Saber, both perform better in most test I've seen from a snub.
Bufflao Bore's standard pressure 158gr. LSWCHP-GC clocks just about identically to the good older FBI load (Remington) that I carried for nearly twenty years. Their +P rendition is near low-end .357 Magnum power. My EDC is loaded with the standard pressure version now.

Not knocking the Speer SB load or the Golden Saber (I have carried the latter), but I like a heavier projectile and the FBI load got the job done for decades from both 2" and 4" barrels.
