I've been practicing a bit for an ICORE match coming up this weekend. I've been practicing with my Model 64 with a bunch of 38 loads (4.5 grns Unique pushing a 150 grn SWC).

This morrning I picked up my Model 27 and tried it with the same loads. Screw that, I'm leaving the Model 64 home.

I dont shoot good enough where as I can tell the differance in accuracy in using 38s in 38 vs using 38s in a 357 (not sure there are many who can while standing on your hind legs). But I do know I can shoot my Model 27 a heck of a lot better.

I think it boils down to which gun you shoot the best, disregarding whether its 38 or 357.
