Why subject yourself to excessive recoil of +P and .357 Mag when you can get a .44 Special that is comfortable to shoot and more efffective?
I don't perceive the recoil of .357 Magnum to be excessive in the least. In fact, recoil from a Model 28 with .357's feels roughly equivalent to recoil from a Beretta 92 to me. The .38 +P loads are downright mild in comparison.

The only time I'd consider .357 to be excessive would be out of a small-frame snubnose, in which case .44 Special would be pretty brutal as well.
