I'm 5'8 150lbs, I shoot full power loads with heavy hard cast bullets (180 grains @ 1150 fps+) and it's no less tolerable than a Glock 29 with heavy handloads. It doesn't hurt my hand at all with the stock grip. Sure you can feel it , but it's a 357 not a 454 Casull. If it hurts your hand it's...
You you're going to shoot mostly 38 special and 38 Speciual +P from your 357 then buy the Smith. If you want to shoot real 357 Magnum full power loads and lots of them then get the Ruger.
357 and 44 Magnum Ruger Camp Carbines - Bring em back Ruger.
357 Magnum Ruger Redhawk - C'mon Ruger make another run of these
7.62x25 Tokarev Glock - I'd buy one
Any 10mm revolver single and double action
Anything in 9x23 Winchester - A Glock or CZ75 would be nice.
Keltec Sub 2000 - I...
I like the heavier bullets in 357 Magnum. The 170 grain Keith SWC's are very accurate bullets in all my 357's and leave a lot of room in the case for powder. I load them long with 2400 or PP300MP and get high velocity with excellent accuracy. The Cast Performance 187 (185 grain actual weight)...
I have a Magnum research BFR in 45-70 with the 7.5" barrel. It shoots softer with Alliant 2400 handloads than my 3.75" Talo Superblackhawk with full power loads.
That's easy Power pro 300MP and Power Pistol provide top velocity with no surprises. Alliant hit it out of the park with these two powders. Two other outstanding powders powders I like are WSF which is my number one choice for accurate reduced power loads in 10mm and Herco which is slightly...
Honestly these days there's really no need for reloading manuals anymore. Everything you need can be found online from the bullet and powder manufacturers. Hodgdon, Alliant, Accurate Arms, Hornady, Nosler, Sierra and just about everyone else selling components has load data available on their...
The Lyman manual isn't bad, but the Hornady 9th edition reloading manual is a confusing pos. Their load data is all over the place. They have some dangerously excessive 10mm loads which show low velocity for the pressure they're producing. Their 357 magnum loads are milder than any other...
If you're really worried about a bear attacking you get some bear spray. It's much easier to spray a charging bear than it is to shoot it in the head and you both live to fight another day.

The cylinder gap of a revolver nullifies any advantage of the long cylinder. Wouldn't you agree Clark? A Coonan semi auto 357 Magnum with a 5" barrel will shoot the same ammo faster than a revolver with a 5" barrel and much faster than a revolver with a 3.3" barrel.
This thread piqued my curiosity so I went through my notes and looked at some of my hotter handloads from my SP101 with a 2.25" barrel.
158 grain XTP 15.5 grains W296 1054 fps ave.
180 grain XTP 13.5 grains W296 1002 fps ave.
185 grain WFN 17 grains PP300MP 1112 fps ave. - 1320 fps ave...
Brass fetcher's testing with handloads proved the round has potential with expanding bullets. The 32 caliber 100 grain XTP at 1550 fps did pretty good.

$600 is too much for a TT33
