Default 642 Ammo Preferences...Please!

I just picked up a new 642,no-lock, to give my front pocket a break from the 640 I usually carry. I needed some weight savings since I'm rapidly becoming an "old fart." What is the general consensus on the best factory 38 special +P for this carry pistol. I have tons of reloads and wadcutters to practice with, but I need a good defensive round to carry. Recoil obviously doesn't bother me that much since I fire a lot of rounds for practice from the 640.
