light recoil.

by Chap, Verified Owner from MN, United States Written on September 5, 2026
These are excellent rounds that reduce recoil and quickens follow up shots. I definitely recommend these if you want a lighter load or need one due to old hands or arthritis. Bought them originally for my parents 38 special and when i was testing them for recoil and accuracy, i was impressed. I ended up buying a box for my taurus 605 to test out as well, and if they group well it may just become my new carry ammo.
