Can't speak to the LCR other than to say it's an OK snubnose, albeit the ugliest damn one I've seen in ages. I can tell you that the short SP101 easily breaks 1300 fps with 125 grain Magnum JHPs and it ain't bad to shoot with them.
The 9mm isn't a bad round but here are too many good pocket autos around, to fool with it in a revolver.
