.38 Bullet brand for action shooting
I am doing some IDPA style shooting at our club (but we don't have the restricting rules.) I was wondering what are good inexspensive bullets to use in my S&W 586 in 38 cal? I see som many bullet makers out there? I would think I would be bying at least 1K to start.

IDPA has fast times. For that reason I'd use a round or turncated nose bullet for ease of loading. I shot a lot of PPC and back then used wadcutters,but I had a little more time to load.
