So I got a new S&W 38 Bodyguard last week. On Monday I shot 50 38 Special rounds (reloads that were pretty much at the top of 38 Special power). Near the end, my hand began to hurt in the area between index finger and thumb. It's been 7 days and still hurts. It's not terrible hurt, just uncomfortable when I squeeze with other hand.
The advise I'm looking for is should I shoot now, wait for the pain to go away and shoot the same, or shoot less or what? Does repetition make your hand tougher, or continue to injure? Should the repetition happen while it still hurts? What program should I take up to become tougher? If it matters, I'm 57 years old...
I can't imagine shooting 5 +P loads now...But she's loaded and on alert...
Thanks in advance
