That must make it easier to get back on target. A short .357 must be hard to get back after the first shot.
You betcha. They really jump with that load. I put 35 or 40 .357 magnum rounds through my new S&W 360 (J Frame, like this one) at the range one day. (Friends reported about a 6-inch muzzle flame.)
Forearm ached for a week. Thought I might have cracked something - I’m not as young as I used to be. Gonna limit it to 10 or less from now on...
A short 357 back on target?
Well the perp’s belly fat will tend to hold it in place for the second shot! :-)
But it only takes one...LOL
