I would like to say that shooting a lot of the lighter bullet weights, 110-125 gr are very hard on your gun . It's just a bad combination no matter what firearm you are using (not just the K frame smiths) . I know of a ruger blackhawk that digested a lot , I mean a lot of the " hot loads " with light weight bullets-----it also is on it's 3rd barrel . I don't shoot the lighter weight bullets in my 357's . It was originally designed for 150-158gr approx , and there is where I start , or heavier .
For the lighter weights , I would go to 38spl +p , esp in a short barrel.
