Thinking about replacing my G32 with an XD357 Tactical.   Anyone have an XD357 they'd like to let me shoot for comparison?

Edited:  Now I'm getting advice to check out the SIG 229 in 357 SIG.   Thoughts?

 No but I do have one in 40S&W. The recoil with mine is hardly noticeable. I can't see 357SIG  being much worse.

Do you have a service (4") or tactical (5")?

I don't have an XD357 but I do have an HS2000 gen3 in 9mm.  Same as XD9 but 1st importer.  Its a great handgun for me.  I shoot better with it than my HP or CZ75.  Very comfortable.  The only bad thing I've heard is mixed reports of its finish resistance to rust.

 I have the service. But as soon as the Sportsman's warehouse opens here in beautiful downtown Orchards I'm going to get a Tactical in 40.

I have an XD9 and I am sure you are tired of seeing all of us post about guns other than the one you asked about...  

But I did see a guy firing a 357Sig at the range a while back, and the fireball out of the end of the gun and the volume of the bang was just crazy.  If you want the best chance to scare the hell out of the perp after firing your handgun, that is the caliber to get

Oh, I already have two Glocks in 357 SIG (32 and 33) -- it's damn fun to shoot.   I'm thinking the XD in 357 SIG would be less wear and tear on the hand.

Ok -- I think the SIG 229 DAK will be the choice.  The Glock 33 is on EE.
