Well, yes, I understand that, but my original goal as stated above was that...

I'd rather not download to 38 Special levels.

I'm just curious to see whether it's possible --without violating the laws of physics-- to load to what will still be an acceptably ".
357-ish" power level [I dunno, say roughly 500 ft lbs of KE or thereabouts] while reducing muzzle blast. I'm hypothesizing that a heavy bullet [180 grains?] pushed out at a moderate velocity [1100-1200 or so fps?] may do the trick...at least to some extent, but I do realize that the .357 is by nature a loud sort of beast that can probably only be tamed so far before it is only a .38 in all but name.
