I tried to pacify the want for one with a LCR XS/bootgrip combo, but the LCR is just an ugly looking gun. I know it shouldn't matter for a CC piece, but hey I guess I'm a little too shallow.
It is a pricey piece the 340 I'll agree, especially now. They were somewhat less at their intro. I still don't feel there is anything on the market that compares .... without doing some sight work at least.
Right you are, you shouldn't have any trouble selling the 405s, I would hold on to them even if you need to try others, I think you will gravitate back to the laser and the rubberized air pocket.
I'm sure as most of us have, you will want to try the .357 just to get it out of the system and see that the revolver will stand up to the use as advertised. It is particularly interesting with the Hogue Mongrips. A tolerable hand cannon in that configuration.
Hornady does the CD in .357 125 grain. I bought some but haven't tried it.
I ran some Remington .357 through mine and the SGDFSB 135 gr. I keep both around as I can always run it in my 686.
These days plus P is all I'am interested in carrying with and my 340 is currently filled with the SGDFSB PN 23921. At some point you have to pick a round, stick with and become proficent with it, knowing its characteristics in your 340.
Point shooting and follow-up shots are the key. The Old Fuff drill 5x5x5.
Five rounds, five seconds, five yards. If you can put five in the COM consistantly that's the goal.
