After the recent surprise I got when S&W informed me that I had eroded the forcing cone on my 640 J-Frame by shooting too many Magnums through it I got to wondering how my other S&W .357s will hold up.
I know the L-Frame was designed to solve the K-Frame .357 problem but I'm still wondering how well they will take a LOT of practice with hot, light loads. Specifically I am talking about the 110 grain SMJHP and the 125 grain SMJHPs. I mostly use 110 grain Winchester white box and 125 grain Remington Golden Sabers (which are actually NOT full-house velocity).
So L-Frame owners please vote in my poll if you have long term Magnum shooting L-frame experience.
