Yes.
Thank You Very Much Guys ! I had more details in the first time I wrote the question.
I feel better telling him it is OK now , with these opinions backing me up.
Much Appreciated !

One thing I didn't see mentioned above was that if you shoot .38 specials, whether +P or not, out of a.357 revolver, make sure you clean the chambers before shooting the longer magnum ammo. Yeah I know a gun needs to be cleaned anyhow but you especially don't want any lead buildup in the chambers when .357 mag is being fired, pressure can increase.

Absolutely. One of the things I also came across last night before coming here for a "straight answer" was a lot of people who were using 38 ammo because it is cheaper, and also easier recoil management. "Double tappers" like it. :tu

I see you're a side loader

I just went shopping and I blame you. Right after your post, I went and ordered my 5" muzzle break for my ACP 45. Thought I'd might as well get it before they're gone.

I edited that after seeing you are a side loader. So yeah you'll decide if over the top likely is better as already shown.
Just be careful
