Two points:

1) You are shooting 357 Magnum ammunition in one gun and 38 Special ammunition in the other. Big difference.

2)See number one above. Most people shoot 38s better than 357s because of the recoil and an almost involuntary flinch or trigger jerk. It takes time and practice to overcome that and shoot Magnums well.
