I own both Smith & Wesson j-frame (640) and k-frame (66) size snub noses revolvers.

While I can shoot .357's out of my Model 640-1 I find them a bit stout for my liking... I prefer to shoot 38 +p for a little less tingle in my hand and more rapid follow up.

Whereas I find shooting 357's out of my 2-1/2" Model 66 quite manageable.
