I'm a new shooter who has gotten reasonably accurate with Single Six 22LR and am in the process of getting a 4" Security Six for home defense. After reading a zillion opinions, I think that I'm going to use 125 gr JHP 38 SPL+P ammo while the gun is at home.
Without opening the can of worms about whether that's the best decision, here's my question, the answer to which I still have not been able to fathom:
Shooting at paper while I'm learning to fire the larger gun, and for periodic practice once I do, what weight bullets should I use in regular (non +P) ammo to minimize any differences in bullet placement at 7-15 yards? (I will shoot a few rounds of the hotter stuff periodically after I get established.) I see 125 gr, 130 gr and 158 gr rounds available. Does it make a difference at that distance? Or is the answer "Whatever you can find these days!"
Thanks.
