I have a Colt Cobra, alloy framed 38 special 2" barrel. It was made in 1958 and except for carry wear looks and shoots like new. My question pertains to +P loads. I read in some places to minimize or don't shoot +P loads in alloy framed guns, I have also read that standard loads in the time frame of this pistol being built were in the +P range and some changes to loading's in the 70's or so dropped standard loading's below this level for the new standard so shooting +P loads would be the same as shooting standard 38 specials in 1958. The one thing I am sure of is that this pistol loves the FBI load, +P 158gr LHP, will shoot under an inch all day at 15 yards to point of aim if I do my part. So anybody have any opinions yea, nay, in moderation?
