I'd be interested to see some chrono/energy data comparing .38 to 9mm out of a <2" bbl.
I guess [STRIKE] if [/STRIKE] when I get a 9mm I'll have to set up the chrono to compare....

That article showed several loads in the 125-138(!) PF range... not shabby for a snubbie. Probably better than the .38spl (incl +p). (my memory is fuzzy, but I seem to recall most defensive .38+p being in the 105-120 PF range from a snubbie?).
My competition load runs ~138 in my G34, ~132 in my G19. If it managed ~125 from the LCR I'd probably just use that one load for everything.
