Oh, I should add. Ruger does not recommend .38s in it as it may not be reliable with the shorter round.
It can shoot .38s from the magazine. The point of impact will be quite a bit lower than .357 at 50 yards. With some testing I think you can figure out how to hold for small game and it won't be all that difficult to make good hits at the closer ranges.
Mine shoots .38s ok.......there may be a malfunction now and then, although the FMJ bullets are totally reliable in mine.
