1. You will have to call S&W for a correct answer

2. Plus P means higher than normal pressure ammunition.

"Other than 38 plus P" could mean another caliber, or normal pressure ammunition.

The caliber should always match the revolver you are shooting.

Normal pressure ammunition of the proper caliber can always be used in a firearm, unless the firearm is a machine gun which requires higher pressure ammunition to operate consistently.
