I find that I have better control with the CorBon stuff and bullet placement is what this is all about.

I know I'm late here (Happy New Year) but Buffalo bore has a 158gr lead SWC HP that is not +p & says non+p on the box. Standard Pressure Short Barrel Low Flash HVY 38 SPL (NON+P), This is written right on the box. The # is 20C-158gr. It says soft lead SWC-HC @ 850fps.
My .38 is an early one probably before +P. I've chronographed this load at an honest 876fps from a 2" bbl.
You may want to try this load.
