Is there a benefit to mixing say a .357 Magnum and .38 Special in a given 357 magnum revolver? I was thinking that you could go all 38 SPL, except the last round in the cylinder is a 357 magnum; and vice versa. That way, it'll keep count for you when you feel the recoil change. Though, I mean, it's "only" 6 or so rounds, but still... And, perhaps you'd want all 357s instead to pack more punch, instead of having a sort of handicap by unnecessarily adding a round that offers less of a punch. Maybe for home defense or concealed carry purposes on say a DA/SA revolver, there could be a scenario to have the first and last rounds be a 357 while the rounds in between are all 38s.
Anyway, that thought got me to thinking if there are real world benefits to mixing different rounds within a given revolver. Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
