Looking for low-power ammo

Anyone have any idea where I can score some very low power target ammo for my .38? I'd like to take the wife target shooting for the first time, and I don't want her to get turned off by a big *BANG*.

I recall shooting some non-jacketed wad cutters once that made my .38 feel more like a cap gun. That's what I need again.

Thanks!

Look for Cowboy Action loads. I got "Ten X" brand for my wife at Cabelas. She loves shooting them in her Charter Arms Pink Lady!

I've been buying .38 ammo any time I can find it (which isn't often lately.) I have had to go online to buy most of it. Check these online retailers: Sportsmans Guide (my fave), Cheaper Than Dirt, Ammunition To Go, Midway USA, Olde English Outfitters. One of them usually has .38 Spl wadcutter ammo in stock. Good luck!
