If 9mm is back in the game in a short.barrel (1050 fps or.so, standard pressure), then the 38 SPL is just.fine too with 135gr at 950 fps in a short.barrel ( +P).
Not.as much ammo, but.in the smaller guns that is 5 vs 7 or 8.
Comparing like.for.like here, which would be a Glock 43 vs a SW 642.
When.you get to the SP101, which I find carries.pretty.easily, the same weight kicks you up toward a much higher capacity 9mm. The math is not.quite.so.compelling. But 357 Mag is a.nice bonus if you like a wheel gun, and certainly doable in the SP101 (vs a SW lightweight 357).
