M&P 340- 357 carry round recommendations

[seabright60]

Hi,

I recently bought a brand new M&P 340 I absolutely love this little revolver, its size, its weight, its sights-everything. I'm not recoil sensitive so I bought it to pocket carry 357 self-defense rounds exclusively.

But here's my challenge. I purchased 3 boxes of Remington 125 grain 357 Golden Saber Self Defense rounds. I was only able to fire 2 rounds per cylinder before the remaining rounds jumped crimp and locked up my cylinder.

I actually like the way the Golden Sabers shot. Recoil with these 125 grain 357's (at about 1200 fps) was quite manageable.

What self defense rounds do you shoot & carry in your Scandium S&W, LCR, or other lightweight revolvers?

I really want to trust my new 340, so I'd appreciate hearing your thoughts.

Thanks!

I only shoot 158 grain 357s and some 38 of varying weights , I probably have 800 357s thru it and and 800 of 38s havent had a single issue with the firearm yet, as far as my hand meat between my thumb and trigger finger go ,it bled a few times now its like leather lol. I cam shoot 100 rounds in a row and not bleed now.
