.38spl WC for SD?

I just may do that. Mrs. E18 wants new french doors first! This is the same woman who bought me a New 696ND for Christmas in the mid-1990s when they first came out; gotta keep the piece!
 
Back in the day when revolver were still widely carried, for a time we were required to shoot a 50 round qualification with DUTY ammo even in off duty and backup guns.

Standard duty 38 ammo at the time was the 158 +P Lead SWC, either WW or RP.

However, it was found that this ammo was a little hard to shoot for 50 rounds in the Airweight S&W "Chiefs"...

So Factory 148gr Wadcutters were authorised for them.
