I was wondering what everyones bullet weight preference is for their .38 or .357, but mostly .357 for general duty. I have a fondness for 140gr. bullets, and they seem to perform well. These loads aren't for SD since I use store bought ammo for that. It just seems to me that the best performance are had in the 135 to 145gr. range for both, at least as far as accuracy, and velocity and power. I just never liked 158gr pills, just as I don't like 147gr for 9mm. I dont have a carbine, yet, and these are mostly for varmints around the property, paper, and maybe hunting if i ever make it out. In Iowa, there isn't much that cant be stopped by a 38.
