Went ahead and loaded some 38 Spl +P with 125 gr JHP using Alliant Power Pistol (PP) data. 6.2 grs to start.

Any experience with PP and 125 gr JHP? Results?

I just bought some power pistol for .38 defense loads. For practice I have 125 gr. SWCs (coated) and 135 gr Speer Gold Dots for the real deal. I've shot a few rounds just to see how they feel and and in a 'j' frame (all steel) they are stiff and whack you pretty good. Not something you want to do a lot of. If I can get to the outdoor range I'll clock them. I want to get as close to 1000 ft/sec as possible, but I may back off if they are too uncomfortable to shoot and get follow up shots.
