Rabbi,
As far as 357 loads,I am partial to the following:
PMC-El Dorado Starfire JHP150-grain
Winchester Silvertip JHP 145-grain
I like the fact that they shoot dead-on with fixed sight guns,whereas the 125s in my experience are a tad off. I also have found the blast and flash to be a bit less than the lighter 110/125 crowd. My own view is that I like a bit more penetration/momentum from the 140-158 grain bullet in 357, rather than the lighter 110/125. This may be due to snow and winter conditions from November through mid-May in my neck of the woods.
The Silvertip is a fine all-around JHP that works well in a variety of scenarios, and is readily available at a reasonable price.
I have tested and recovered Starfire JHP in 38 +P, 357, and 45 ACP calibers and the results were consistently confidence-building. I can get the Starfire JHP dirt cheap and it works. It is an often-overlooked round.
Cor-Bon is supposed to have a 145-150 grain JHP, but I have not yet tried it out yet. My past experience with their magnum loads (used in a Taurus 617 and 627 Ti Tracker) was less than pleasant.
