I come from the old school that avoids full-power, lightweight bullets (110 and 125 gr) in K-frame 357 revolvers. This is due to the rare possibility of the cracking the bottom of the forcing cone where it is the thinnest. I don't know if this is scientific or just a superstition.

I prefer to use 158gr 357 magnum loads or stick with any available 38 Special ammo.
