For years I carried the Winchester 125 grain +P+ LSWHP load that is now long discontinued . Only have 12 of those left that I keep in my Colt Cobra.
I would not give the prosecuting attorney that easy of a case against me. If I were you I would use someone's factory ammo. You do not want to hire Massad Ayoob to defend you. He's expensive!
