Fed. .38 HST

[ct9kahrtoter]

Does anyone here remember these loads from the 70's

148 gr. Hornady HBWC seated backwards. & a 125 gr. jacketed soft lead H.P. with steel ball in the cavity




Then company IIRC named Scorpian added a post. That was the start of the Fed. Hydra Shock.

This is what I carry in S&W 341 TI.





I can't find the new HST's anywhere. But I'm looking

Well, that certainly opens up nice.

The closest I found were Federal .38 Special Wadcutters. That is definitely not a good defense round.

I carry those Nyclads in my Cobra and my wife's 638. I don't have many left and don't see them around anymore.
