J-frame: .38 +P 100 gr Pow'r ball...controllable recoil, impressive penetration, and reliable expansion
.45 ACP: 230 grain Remington Golden Sabres...shoots just like hard ball Winchester White Box, accuracy, and HEAVY. I'm beginning to doubt the reliability of its expansion so I'm thinking about switching to 45 Pow'r Ball. But I don't think there's such a thing as a bad 45 ACP, so it's not a project at the top of my list.
