    .357 magnum loads and recoil

    Although the "recoil" may be exactly the same for both rounds, what the shooter feels may be entirely different for both. The difference is the amount of time that recoil is exerted over. If 125gr exerts the same amount of recoil over a shorter time period, it is perceived to be harsher. In...
