This kind of change from lot to lot is one of the reasons that folks like Dr. Robert suggest buying ammo in 1000 round cases. That's my general preference.

I'd run the 38+P GS in the 340 until I found some more reliable 357s. The power advantage with the 357 over the 38+P is less with a short barrel (1 7/8") than it is in the longer barrels. I'd also drop the Remingtons as there are some better options out there now that are specifically made for short barrel guns.

I wrote early-on that I switched from GS to Speer GoldDot HP for short-barrel. Have not had a hiccup since. But, that is just my two-cents....

I carry them in either my M&P340 or my 340PD.
