Hello all,
I picked up a new S&W 340M&P earlier in the week. So far the only defensive loads that I have shot are the DPX 110 grain +P.38spl and Speer GDHP +P 135 grain in .38 spl. Out of the two, I prefer the DPX because they seem more accurate in my new revolver. They are both a little peppy but controllable.
Has anyone compared the .357 mag versions of the DPX and short barrel GDHP out of a light weight gun? Could you share how they compare in terms of recoil and muzzle blast? I tried some full power 125 grain loads and they were no fun to shoot at all.
