Since my wife finally got around to sending out everything for her carry permit, I picked her up a LCR. She decided she wanted to carry a revolver (which I agreed 100% with, given that she's still not familiar enough with semi-autos for me to feel comfortable with her carrying one), and I surprised her with the LCR, selected due to its excellent trigger. She was pretty excited with it, so I did well.
Anyway, what carry ammo do you think I should get for her? Her LCR is in .357, but she hates to fire .357 (even out of my GP100), so I'm thinking a 38spl load. Since snubs are snappy and since I'd like her to be able to practice with her carry load, I figured I'd settle on a good standard pressure 38spl load.
I'm thinking of something like this:

or

Not sure how much I trust anything to expand at the sedate velocities you'll get with standard pressure 38spl.
Thoughts? Anyone actually tested these themselves?
