I bought some a while back & I think they're a good choice for a SD load in a snubnose 38 Special, or even a 357Mag.
They are very soft, BHN-5, so their big, and deep, hollow-point will expand easily at snubby speeds.
They weigh 160gr & Rim Rock told me they rate them to 1150fps max, which shouldn't be an issue in a snubby.
I use them with 6.0grs of Power Pistol in a 38 Special case (+P load) & 8.0grs of Power Pistol in a 357 Mag case. The gas checks do their job & leading is not an issue with them.
