38 Year Old S&W Model 60 Snubby and it's Brand New!!!!!

[DonWorsham]

I think it is a spectaculiar defensive round and if it works great in a snubby why not in a 4" as well?

To anyone and everyone: where do you get your ballistic comparsions from? Do you have the resources to do them yourself or is there a good place on the net to look this up?

Hi Beansie....


I like this one for .38 snubbies......... http://www.snubnose.info/docs/snubby_ballistics.htm

If you have a lot of time, here are a few other links that have a load of information on ballistics and ammunition results...........

Thanks CDR!

I hadn't come across the one at angelfire.com. At first glance, it seems like a good read.

The only difference that I am aware of between the SB ammo and regular +p stuff is that the O-give on the SB ammo is wider so that it opens more reliably in short barrel guns.

When in doubt,contact S&W about those +p's.I was a big knick fan back in '69.watched them on channel 9 I believe.I could'nt come around to the Mets being a life long Yankee

At the end of the month I will be flying to Decatur AL with Flyandscuba and we will be assisting in doing some ballistic testing using wetpacks. I am not sure what calibers we will be shooting but if I can work in some Speer GDHP 135gr +p, I will.
