My .38 is a 637 airweight, and even though it's +p rated, I don't often carry it loaded with +p ammo. After shooting is a few times with +p, it's just too light to be comfy for that. I do often shoot my 640 with .38 +p when I can't find .357 in stock, but being stainless, it's a heavier gun. A SWC or SJWC is fine for me in my .38 most of the time. I keep extra speed loaders in the glove box, (including one with snake shot) just in case. Gold Dot makes a "short barrel" round for their .357 ammo. I found a couple boxes for my 640, (they were not cheep) and I'm betting they make a .38 version, but finding some these days would be like hitting the lottery.
