I carried the Remington load for years. Still have a few rounds; but when I was about to buy more I began seeing reports that the "new and improved" rendition was somewhat watered down from the good older stuff I had used. This was chronographed comparison data.

I now carry the standard pressure Buffalo Bore 158 gr. LSWCHP-GC (gas check). It clocks virtually identically the older Remington FBI load, and is advertised as safe to use in any revolver in good working order. Also produces less flash.

For a while, years ago, I carried 125 gr. Golden Saber +P, but decided I wanted a heavier bullet.
