Are these your only locally available choices? If this is for defensive ammo, then personally I would recommend something with sealed primers to help avoid misfires or hang-fires due to environmental contamination (the odds of this happening may be low, but I like to be careful). If the "green box" Remington is their Express line, then the cartridges should have this feature, so they're OK in this regard, although I have seen some negative reports on the reliability of this ammo--for what it's worth, as every product line probably has some complaints and substandard production runs. I would also recommend heavier bullets such as 158 grains, especially in a snubby, but if you'd really prefer to buy locally, even in the case of defensive ammo, then the 125 grain load should do. On the other hand, if you're willing to order from somewhere else (just defensive ammo), then the Speer Gold Dot 158 grain JHP should be a good defensive load.
