Let's face facts. For a "steady diet" 38 Special is a lot more fun to shoot than 357 Magnum. 357 is doable, but expensive and punishing.

Not if you reload. Just a little more powder. It's not punishment in a GP. Recoil is not that more noticeable if you keep your .357's within reason. Mine is so good I will probably shoot it more than my Python or King Cobra. I'll keep them for prestige, the GP is the comparable workhorse.
