Okay...I'll start...
I used to load my CCW and HD revolvers with Hornady .38 spl (non +p) 125 grain XTP due to its moderate recoil and I wanted a non +p that was heavier than 110 grain; after doing research (seems it doesn't expand from a snubby gun) and testing several 'tried and true' loads, I stopped buying it; so...
1) design a bullet (.357" 125 grain) to expand reliably in a lower velocity range
2) incorporate a .38 spl (non +p) loading in their TAP-FPD lineup with nickel oxide coated brass and flash suppressant
the .38 snubby revolver is still a prolific CCW platform; I like Hornady products; I often find Hornady products to be more accurate that other SD loads on the market; I want my cake and eat it too...
anyone else have any ideas?
