Tahunua mentioned Buffalo Bore ammo earlier.
This stuff looks pretty potent as .38 special goes (about 1150 fps out of a 4" barrel...and Buffalo Bore seems honest about velocities) and the hard cast 158-grain bullets ought to penetrate well.
Spending $25-30 on a box of those to keep on hand might be a reasonable alternative to buying an entirely different gun.
