Default 340
I've owned the 340Sc and have fired magnums in it. That isn't pleasant, but you can live with it. I currently have a 342PD that I really like. It's very light and keeps me from being tempted to carry .357 in it. I'm considering a 340 M&P no lock, if I can find one (and afford it), but I'll probably only carry Buffalo Bore 158 gr. LHP rounds at 1000 fps. They'll hurt enough, I'm sure. I did notice a bit of bullet pulling with some of the lighter magnums, but that was pretty much solved when I went to the .357 135 gr. GDHP. Even in magnum, it wasn't too bad.
