I was a little disappointed when I learned (according to Speer's website) that they are just slightly more powerful than the .38 spc+p version.
Yes, they are a modest (by 357 Mag standards) round - by design. I can hear the powder inside when I shake them. They - I believe - are designed to fill that gap between 38+P and powerful 357 loadings that are "a bit much" for those of slight build and/or small frame guns.

I'm looking forward to my chronograph session too. Once I do, I will start a new thread with all my data for every factory defense round I have tested for 38/357.
