thanks, i found 1 box of smith and wesson nyclad plus p yesterday at orlando gun show but i do not want plus p, maybe i should have grabbed them 40 bucks/ 50 rd box. I guess i will use the federal low recoil 110 grain jhp for now.

anyone have some 38 special nyclads they can spare? product #p38ma, or if you know a dealer who has them!
