Mark79, please give input. Others welcome, too.
I love 357 but I shoot it from a 6 inch. I'm considering acquiring a 3 inch for conceal carry and I want recommendations on "weaker" factory 357 ammo as to effect less report (blast) and less recoil. As you know, the shorter the barrel and smaller/lighter the frame of the revolver, the louder the report and more recoil is effected by the same ammo contrasted to a longer-barreled, heavier revolver. I still haven't begun reloading so that's not an option now, nor in the near future. I may have to go with 38 +p for carry, if there are really no "weaker" factory 357 available.
