38 Snub Ammo Tests: Corbon vs Speer vs Remington - Page 3

I carry the little Speer GDHP +P .38spls in all of my two and three inch relvolvers, .357mag or .38spl, except the 9mms 940s. I'm still carrying Winchester +P+ Ranger Ts in them.

They say that the best self defense gun is the one that you have with you. If it is a snub, it is still better than no gun at all. I often carry a Taurus 85CH loaded with Remington 158gr. LSWCHP's, but have found that my Taurus Millinium Pro 9MM is just as easy to carry and with 1 spare mag gives me 25 rounds. To get that I would have to carry 4 speedloaders for the .38. It does find it's way onto my belt at times though.

Hornady makes a standard 158 grain 38 special with their XTP
bullet. I ordered some this weekend......
