Not a magnum guy myself. One of my first guns I bought from a member was a 6" S&W 629. It came with a box of factory ammo. It just doesn't feel right to me having that much jarring power in a hand gun. Nope. >>>>>357 Magnum . I use to shoot more 44 mag but as I am getting older I like the less recoil of the 357.
When I shoot 357 I shoot full power 125/158 JHP with H-110. 38 special for the bunny fart loads.
340 PD Airweight or 686+ recoil is a bit different.

^^^^That's what I asked myself! So I sold it, with brass, bullets and dies. Several years ago I picked up a nice Winchester 94 AE in .38/.357 with the intent on shooting mostly .38 sp. But in the last couple months picked up a bunch of nickel .357 brass and loaded up some full power .357. @ron, for reference, I'm curious what your loads is with 125 grain jacketed and H110? I started with 20grs and it seemed too heavy for me to enjoy so down loaded to 16grs with mag primers.44. Uh... Why?
I am running 18.5 grains of H110 with 125 JHP Hornady I use to do 18.8 of H110. Reduced loads with H110I'm curious what your loads is with 125 grain jacketed and H110?
Thanks Ron.I am running 18.5 grains of H110 with 125 JHP Hornady I use to do 18.8 of H110. Reduced loads with H110
are not recommended? From Hodgdon's "Don't start at more than 3% below their published starting loads".
H110 Load - Don't Go Below -3%: Debunked
