Keep working on your trigger pull. Remember, to squeeze gently, until you're at the breaking point, and then squeeze a wee bit more.
Keep practicing with some lightly loaded .38 special wadcutters with this technique, and I'd bet that you tighten up those 8" groups to 4" after a few days.
If you find the blast of a full house .357 magnum load to be too much at first, you can certainly carry Remington's medium velocity .357 magnum loads. They fire out a 125 grain bullet to about 1200+ fps, which is about the same as the hotter 9 mm +P loads (a very respectable performer).
Also, Speer makes a short-barrel Gold Dot load for the .357 magnum caliber as well. This is what I carry in a .357 magnum snubbie. -

Sexy.
Do they make a replacement hammer that "shaves" it down a bit or completely? I'd be concerned about CCW that thing and catching it on a sweater or something. -

There are several shrouded hammer versions...but I like the look of the exposed hammer better. I am looking into waistband holsters now with that very issue in mind.

I thought about getting a handgun for home protection...and when I do...it will be a revolver. If it is gonna be sitting in a drawer for years before you NEED it, you need simplicity, not worn out springs and jammed pistol. Originally Posted by AnnaTrocity
