I recently decided to try pocket carry with a DA revolver, so I picked up a great condition used 340PD and a pair of Crimson Trace Lasergrips. I bought the gun from a reputable local dealer that had a table at the gunshow. When I took the gun to the range for the first time, I shot Remington Golden Saber 125 grain in both .38+P and .357 Magnum. I plan on carrying the .357 Magnum load. The second trip to the range I shot Fiocchi 142 (or maybe 147) grain FMJ truncated cone loads. I don't handload for pistol so I haven't shot any handloads through this revolver.
Anyway, the problem that developed is this: once they're fired the .357 Mag brass are REALLY hard to get out of the cylinder. For some reason they're just stuck in there. No such problem with the .38 brass.
Any thoughts as to what could be causing this? I don't want to shoot it any more until I figure out what the problem is.
