If that is the case, then try some plain lead hollowbase wadcutters, seat them backwards, and you are in business at any range within 25 yards. No need to drive them fast either, you can drive them at .38 Special +P velocities or lower.

I think Hornady still makes hollow base wadcutters in this calibre, you can use the load data you would use for the same bullet seated normally. You can do the same with hollowbase wadcutters in any of the larger centrefire handgun calibres as well.

Also if you want to punch through a perp's car door to nail him, any of the 160+ grain Keith type bullets loaded to .357 magnum velocities will do it. Personally for an all around load for a .357 I would use one of the 160+ grain Keith bullets.
