The old top breaks give me the heebie jeebies, probably
for no real good reason as I know many of them are STILL used with factory .38 S&W 146 gr loads. My only .38 S&W ever has been my Webley MK IV. I load 2.0 gr Bullseye under a 200 gr. RN bullet of appropriate diameter. I've been told this is right at too much for the gun but I have shot a few hundred with no discernible problems.
