You asked what load for the .38 Spl. I gave you the one that comes closest to meeting current duty round protocols and is probably the most popular issue .38 for the handful of agencies that still issue .38.

For service auto calibers, read here: https://pistol-forum.com/showthread.php?4337-Service-Caliber-Handgun-Duty-and-Self-Defense-Ammo

Heck, read the rest of the stickied threads there. There's a buttload of good info there.
