Basically, I now shoot my J frame 20-25 times each weekly range vist...all using 38 Spl +P 158 gr LHP. These are quality practice rounds and not just banging away as I used to do when practicing with std velocity loads. Using just +P I’m accustomed to its noise and recoil...not much of a problem. The Hogue Bantam grips, although small, help to soak up the recoil.

I reserve my larger frame revolvers for a steadier diet of +P rounds (at least 50-100 rounds per session)
