Default Anybody shoot Winchester 38 Special 130 Grain FMJ?

I finally found some 38 Special here in NJ and was wondering what you guys think of Winchester 38 Special 130 Grain FMJ? I want to finally shoot my 686. I might be able to get a little more of it tomorrow if its still there in the morning but wanted to ask the forum first. Thanks to all!

Great target round with little recoil. It's my preferred practice round in my 642. Plenty accurate and usually cheap enough that it won't break the bank.

Thanks guys, I'll try to grab the last 2 100 packs if they are still there in the AM. I doubt it because they are limiting it here in NJ to one box per person per day. It is usually 3 but I had to get the guy that thinks otherwise. Anyway, I wanted to get the opinion of the forum first. No ammo is cheap anymore in NJ. The "value pack" 100 rounds of 38 was $44.99 + tax came out to just over $49! I have to say the 9mm is ok at $14.99 + tax for 50. Happy Easter to all that celebrate!

I found the very limited supply at Dick's Sporting Goods. The ammo is sold out as soon as the store opens on truck days.
