I asked this in another thread that was dedicated to the LCR, but I figured I would start a new thread about this specific issue, as it pertains not only to the LCR but also to any of the airweight snubnose .38's....
I keep reading about how airweight .38's sometimes unseat hollow points from the casings, particularly with P+ rounds. Have any LCR owners had any problems with bullets becoming unseated from the casings? The owner's manual also describes this as a possibility & details how to check your ammo.
What kind of SD-hollowpoints are people loading in their LCRs? I currently have mine loaded with 129gr Federal Hydra-shoks, but I have not had an opportunity to get to the range to test fire the HP's yet.
What SD ammo have folks tested & found out does not work? Conversely, what SD ammo have people found works as intended?
I don't want to stock up on a particular brand of ammo only to find that it is not airweight/snub friendly.
