I also own the 340pd .357 J frame scandium and I don't think the recoil is as bad in that gun as it is the .44 mag.
Even with the X-frame grip, if I shoot more than 75 full-house rounds I'll be bleeding in the web.

But I have other hobbies that make me bleed too, so a little recoil isn't a big deal.
