Hello All, I am hopefully getting my 66 delivered in a couple days. My first handgun and first forum. I am looking forward to picking your brains about this and other S&W's.

Thank you for the warm greetings. May I start out with my first question? I have been reading some posts on .357 ammo and want to get it right. For my 66-1, are you saying I should stay above 125gr, like 142, 158 or even 180gr? Does the jacket matter or amount of lead?
I am a babe in the woods here. Go slowly.

The 125 grains have a reputation of damaging the forcing cone on the K frame Models. I do not have first hand experience with this Wify, because I have never used the 125 grain bullet. I am sure many here will chime in with their experiences.
