I shoot a lot of .357 mag ( and I reload everything ) ....and in my K, L and N frame S&W revolvers ...or my Freedom Arms large frame...I shoot the same round ...
158 gr JHP Montana Gold
6.1 grains of Hodgdon Universal ( about 1100 fps )
Not a particularly hot load...but fun to shoot in all of my guns.
--------------
I load the same bullet for .38 spl....
4.2 grains Hodgdon Universal ( about 725 fps ) ....mostly for the grandkids to shoot in my .357 mag revolvers.
----------------
If I carry one of my 4" K frame S&W's I carry it with 158 gr HydraShok ammo.
