+P is the way to go in a snub. They give it better stopping power and penetration than standard loads. Penetration is very important when it comes to stopping power and +P loads reach the FBI minimum penetration depth of 12" easier and more reliably than standard loads. If I were not gonna use +P loads then I would use the 158 grain SWCHP load. In the +P loads I like the Speer Gold Dot 135 grain short barrel load.
