Here are some match grade loads. I always shoot 357 cases loaded to about 850 FPS. For target practice and plinking I agree with you. I can find no reason to shoot the high pressure rounds.

Well went you want to let go of coarse then you need a good hot load.

145 grain Silver tips 4.3 W231

145 grain Silvertips 4.1 R-Dot

140Gr XTP 4.6 AA#5

140Gr XTP 3.7 B'seye

The above loads are interchangable between the XTP and the Win-Silvertips.

Those are spending bullets for target shooting, you might look at mid-Way for some remington HP's
