I picked up a used model 19-5 2 1/2 over the weekend. Took it to the range for the first time this evening. It's nice shooting gun, accurate for the short barrel, and fun. I used two different targets. One for 38's and the other for 357. The 357 target had a bunch of clean cut holes roughly in the center. The 38 target's holes were also fairly centered but several looked as if the bullet had gone through the paper sideways. They clean cut semicircle at the bottom and at the 12 o'clock the paper was torn in a cone shape. What could cause this and Why with one caliber but not the other?
Ammo used was Monarch (green box from Academy) 158gr SJHP for both 38 and 357.
I did not try any other ammo as this range's ammo is at least 30% higher than anywhere else. I am not paying 29.99+tax for WWB.
