She bought the same grips. She is taking a class this weekend and got 2 boxes of PPU fmj rn factory loads.

If your friend has a SP101 4", (.357), it won't make any difference what load you pick, but the shooter/owner needs to understand that what is fine in her SP101 may be a kiss of death to an older Featherweight, or a revolver not rated for +P.

FWIW, I put a set of Pachmyar Diamond Pro's on my SP101 4", $17 from Midsouth. Much easier on the shooter than the OEM grips, especially if she transitions to .357 ammo at some point.
