My questions are in regards to 2 specific ammo products , both .38 special :
Magtech 158 gr lrn , muzzle energy 200 ft lb , muzzle velocity 755 fps.
Fiocchi 130 gr fmj , muzzle energy 284 ft lb , muzzle velocity 950 fps.
Question on the Magtech ; Am I correct in thinking that this lrn is an appropriate and safe ammunition for use in older revolvers , such as a model o 1902 and a model of 1905 , both from around 1910? Seems like a round which resembles that which those models were designed for - am I right in that?
The Fiocchi 130 gr fmj ... not sold as +P , but a bit on the hot side... My intended use for this product is in shooting a model 15 , a 14 , and a couple of stainless J frames , none of which are +P rated.
I am working on stocking up on ammunition which is appropriate to some of my favorite revolvers. These two products are (I think) of reasonable quality and price. Informed opinions on these combinations of revolver and ammo will be appreciated.
