I think it would work, but since we're talking revolvers and you don't need to shoot a bunch of it through your gun to make sure it feeds reliably I'd shoot the UMC stuff as practice ammo and find a premium 125gr. +P JHP to actually carry, like Remingtons Golden Saber.
That way at least your carry ammo and practice ammo are pretty similar in how they handle, I think that UMC stuff is meant more as practice ammo, JHP or not. I trust the premium stuff to perform better.
