Curious to know if anyone's used Speer's 135-grain Gold Dot .38 Special +P jhp's in a titanium Taurus snubbie revolver that's rated for +P loads. The wife carries one of the "spectrum blue" M85 Ti revolvers with 125-grain Federal +P jhp's in it, and it does fine with the limited number she's tried. However, I've noticed that the 135-grain GD +P's seem to generate more recoil than the Federal loads do in my all-steel Ruger snubbie. I don't want to stress her Taurus Ti snubbie by pushing it too far.
I checked through the archives I could access and didn't find any info on this. The 135-grain Gold Dots are a superb snubbie load, and I'd like for her to have them in her off-duty gun. But not if it's gonna shake the gun to pieces.
Thanks for listening...,
