I just want a FMJ equivalent to my defensive round, which right now is Buffalo Bore short barrel .357 in 125 grain.

Doesn't have to have exact poa/poi. I'm not shooting competition. Just has to have a similar recoil and overall feel to it so I can begin and end my practice rounds without blowing through $1.50 ammo.

Simple as that. I don't understand how this topic got so off course so quickly and in so many different ways.

In any event I got some Armscor 125 grain FMJ. Also picked up some Golden Sabre for the fun of it. I'll compare it to the BB, mostly out of the steel J-frame.
