The Green and White box Remington load can be found just about anywhere, including Walmart; the Corbon and Buffalo Bore take a bit more looking. They all seemed pretty equal on the meat target, except for the one BB that didn't expand. The more relevant point might be which one hits closet to the fixed sights on most .38 snubbies.

You are right that the 637 is a good representation of the typical guns carried, because I carry a S&W J-frame with a 1.875" barrel and already do carry the Hornady CD 110+P in it. It's helpful to know what that barrel is pulling in velocity with the Hornady round and also helpful to have other ammo tested that I have been wondering about. This video will be very helpful to many. Thanks again for sharing.

Paul - This is an excellent video that will benefit a great many of us, because snubnose .38 Special/.357 magnum revolvers continue to be a widely employed concealed carry alternative. THANK YOU. I wanted to add one comment, which I help may assist some viewers. I often carry a 2.25 inch barrel Ruger SP-101; as you’re well aware, it is: - A very high quality five-shot revolver, - Designed for great durability/reliability, - Delivering surprising fine accuracy (with Crimson Trace grips, it is quite accurate, even at 50 yards), and - Quite capable of handling .357 magnum loads (including stout ones). It’s a “snubby,” but it is also somewhat heftier than a J Frame. Magnum recoil makes RAPID follow-up shots difficult form the SP-101 (or any snbunose, in my opinion). Therefore, I opt to use Buffalo Bore, 158 Grain, +P, lead semi-wadcutter hollow points, rather than any .357 magnum round. This round is an adaptation of the revered “FBI load,” its soft lead composition is specifically designed to enhance expansion, it provides 1000+ FPS muzzle velocities, and it has a gas check that virtually eliminates barrel leading (even with the soft lead in this LSWCHP). I believe this round is near peerless for defensive use from any short barreled 38 Special +P or .357 magnum revolver (I even occasionally carry it in my Ruger KGP-141 - a SUPERB revolver - with a four-inch barrel).

Paul, very good video. The fast buffalo bore ammo is great, but i like how you proved the basic ammo is just as effective. I have arrived at the conclusion by watching many videos of yours. In self defense, the gun you are most skilled and accurate with is the best choice maybe even disregarding caliber or cartridge as long as the projectile is suitable for the task at hand.

Paul, I have watched a great deal of your videos and find them very well done and informative. I also share your skepticism of the ‘hyper’ ammunitions, with few exceptions. However, one load that does seem to live up to the hype and which I think you ought to take a look at and perform a review of is the Buffalo Bore 38 special +p outdoorsman. It’s a 158 gn SWC designed for outdoor protection, and there really isn’t anything else on the market comparable. I have attempted and failed to match its performance with my own handloads. I have personally chronographed it at 1173 fps from a 4 inch barrel and 1062 fps from a 2 inch barrel. That would be 483 ft/lbs and 396 ft/lbs respectively, which is remarkable performance from a 38. In any case, I think either a review of this ammo or perhaps a review of the Buffalo Bore outdoorsman line of ammo (they offer several ‘outdoorsman’ loads of various calibers) more generally would make for an interesting video. I’m not affiliated with Buffalo Bore, I have just found that they offer some things that aren’t available elsewhere in the market and which I can’t seem to replicate with handloads. Thanks for your contributions to the hunting and shooting communities.

For the .38 Special it seems like the ancient "FBI load" is still the round to beat. I tend to go for heavy-for-caliber ammo to begin with no matter what round I'm shooting. Handgun power is marginal compared to rifle power so I opt for a bullet that will penetrate well. As much as I've had shitty luck with cheap Remington ammo I have to concede their higher end nickle cased 158 lead semi-wadcutter hollow points seem to be consistent, reliable and accurate.

I think the 38 Special gets a bad rap when it was perfectly fine for LEA’s for decades. Also considered a 148gn WC as fast as I could push it without leading the barrel for a defensive load but I’m waiting on Paul to shoot a meat target with some.

The Buffalo Bore uses Barnes TAC-XP projectile. If you buy it as a reloading component, it runs about 69¢ per projectile. You only get 40 in a box. That doesn't help with the price. Copper is much harder than lead, so more velocity is needed to open up the hollow point. Perhaps different construction can mitigate that problem. The real big deal that may come in to play is lead bans/restrictions. I'm fairly sure those are coming.

I use the Buffalo Bore 340 gr. +P+ .44 magnum on wildhogs. That is one place the high dollar ammo is worth the extra money. For every day use around the farm for coyotes I prefer Privy Partisan ammo. Hotter than Winchester and Remington. Good for cougars as well. For concealed carry super hot ammo isn't necessary, nor cost effective unless you're rich and have money to spend in excess. Remington makes adequate ammo for every day use and won't break the bank. Just my opinion.
