in my book the 38 Special is alive and well

[Anvil Jenkins]

handload it to 1970 pressures

it is effective and easy to control

those flat walled cases can be reloaded for eternity

the K frame smith and D frame colt are about perfection

yeah...38 special is alive and well at my house

Eh, .38s, meh. Just kidding; who doesn't love the .38 SPL? America's other caliber... Two old favorites:

Also a fan of the 38spl, here is one I recently added - A Smith 14-3 long barrel.
Got a couple more dedicated 38spl - Smith 36-7

and a 642-2

I have several other 357's and I shoot nothing but 38spl out of them. I load mild loads using Trail boss powder.

We sell a lot of 38 sp ammunition at Cabellas. Just saying.
