Default Thinking about getting the S&W 340PD but have questions please.

Hey guys, brand new here. I've been thinking about getting the S&W 340PD with the HIVIZ but I'm concerned about two things and wondering if you could help me.

1) I've read that sometimes with recoil the rounds/casings can back out a little bit while firing and actually cause a jam? Preventing the cylinder from rotating? Is this true with the 340PD? Especially because it's such a lightweight revolver?

2) Is the recoil with this revolver really outrageous with .357 rounds?

I appeciate any and all replies as I look forward to learning about this revolver.
